Route 66/Holiday.2015

Post by Scooby »

As its a bit quiet -time of year and all that, thought id post up a few pics of a place we came across on our holiday doing the Route 66.

Should prob posted them up a bit sooner.........

We came across this place more by accident as it was not really advertised off 66.
Anyway, known as Country Classic Cars at a place called Staunton. IL
Website is www.countryclassics.com.
They will buy-sell anything of American iron to and from basically anywhere in the world. There wasn't to many Mopars but a very nice selection of all types.
Ill see if I can dig any more photos a bit further on.
Enjoy.
Rich.

Last few this is only a small selection as there was probably well over a 500 motors spread over 6 units. ( including inside and out)
Points for those who recognise the Dart dressed as Trans am...sorry peoples taste....well it was the USA....

And apologies for the way ive down loaded them...im sure There's a better way.

Ok guys thanks for the comments.
We planned this over 3 years - the cost the places to see - go -people to see .
Flew into Chicago hired an RV and spaced this journey out over 3 weeks so we could get to see as much as possible( we didn't see everything) there's just so much.
The people we met the places we went to and off route to the Grand canon ( which blew us away) trip into Vegas and then finally into LA. Stayed at a couple of hotels on route but used the RV ( The the RV was from Criuse America) we used the ( K.O.A) camp sites which were excellent for there facilities.
IF can do it try if I was asked would I do it again Yes ....
Rich.
