Hackberry Arizona is one of those Route 66 stops that feels like stepping back in time. Old gas pumps, classic cars, vintage signs, and memories of old U.S. Highway 66 are around every corner. It is the kind of place where you can slow down, walk around, and really take in the spirit of the Mother Road.

The Gay Parita Sinclair Station in Paris Springs Missouri is one of the coolest restored old gas stations on Route 66. With vintage gas pumps, classic signs, and that old-time feel, it is the kind of place that makes you feel like you stepped right back into the glory days of old U.S. Highway 66. Definitely one of my favorite stops along the Mother Road.
