    Justin, I'm the owner of the RT66FAN Camaro you met in this video. It was great meeting you and now you have another subscription and fan. Anyone with a love of this country's transportation history owes it to themselves to retrace the many alignments of Route 66 from 1926 to 1985 when it was decommissioned. You've done an excellent job of showing the armchair adventurers what lies in store if they follow in your tracks. We also stayed at the Rail Haven in Springflield and highly recommend it to Route 66 travelers. (we may have coincidentally stayed in the exact same room).

    So let me get this straight - Uranus has the worlds largest belt buckle - and is the home of the Pirates. I guess in a town like that they need to keep the booty covered!
    OK, I'll leave now.

    I love your vlogs!! I recently discovered Uranus, MO last month as I was driving from Chicago with my Aunt to Branson, MO. The billboard sign along I-44 says "The best fudge comes from Uranus". I had to take a picture of it so others would believe me! I posted it on Facebook. Priceless and clever marketing!

    And Lebanon is pronounced Leb-a-nun by the locals.

    Thank you for a very detailed view of ol route 66. In 2008 I drove a 1922 model t the whole way to the beach in L.A. I see that much has changed in such a short time, yet so much is still the same. Looking forward to your other finds into Chicago direction. Cheers

    @09elbiggie 7 лет назад +1

    Welcome to Rolla, Justin! There are a few cool things around this area relating to Route 66. It's too bad you've got a schedule to keep, because I could tell you several places to check out. I wondered if you'd talk about Hooker Cut. It was said to be the deepest road cut in the country at the time, 90 feet at it's deepest. That was also only the second four-lane highway in the country at the time. I'm enjoying "riding" along on your trip. I hope to make the same trip myself one of these days!

    My parents grew up in the Ozarks in Arkansas. They traveled RT66 in the 50's & 60's. They settled in California in the 60s. I live in Oklahoma not far from RT66 or Arkansas. Life takes it's twists and turns. I wish I could remember the stories they told me about their travels.

  • @shaunspeers2656

  • @KaylaT636
    @KaylaT636 6 лет назад +1

    I think the closed bridge you went on at around the 13 minute mark is the old gasconade river bridge. It was destroyed by the massive flooding just a month before you came.

    Justin, according to Google, there were two cars used in the MGM movie, "The Long, Long Trailer"; a 1953 Mercury Monterey convertible with a 125 HP flathead V8, and for filming of the mountain scenes they switched to a very similar-looking Lincoln Capri with a 205 HP overhead valve Y-block V8. The Lincoln was made to look as much like the Merc as possible, but one must wonder... Since the cars were both Ford Motor Company products, WHY didn't they just put the Lincoln engine in the Mercury to begin with?
    The trailer was a 1953 36-foot Redman "New Moon" model, which sold new for $5, 345 (almost $50K today). It weighed more than 3 TONS - hence the car swap.
    "The Long, Long Trailer" was directed by Vincente Minnelli, Liza Minnelli's father.
