Route 66 is an anomaly in the United States.  There aren't too many over 2200 mile (3500km) roads full of old, unusual, restored and unique sights.  I thought I would post a few of them for your viewing pleasure!

registration cards as we did 50 years ago. (click to enlarge)

How about curling your hair with this contraption! (click to enlarge)

A mechanical winch on a tow truck. (click to enlarge)

A part of Route 66 that has curbs.  They were designed to funnel rain water down the edges of the
road.  They did but caused flooding at the bottom of the hills because there were no drains.
 Whose dumb idea was that? (click to enlarge)

A homemade wooden RV from an old school bus. (click to enlarge)
