The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

Things That Inspired the Movie "Cars" and Other Things-- Part 2


Continued from August 1.

Quanset Huts--  Sarge's place

Pony Bridge--  Trade Winds Hotel  where Elvis slept

Country Dove Restaurant--  Silk Pies

Motrack--  riding lawnmowers

Barb Wire Museum--  When our hero got caught up in it.

By the fourth day of the movie company's trip to gather information for their movie, they weren't too worried about getting to the next place.  In the movie, once they got to Radiator Springs, he slowed down.

Midpoint Cafe--  ugly crust pie

The single most inspirational place was Glenrio--  essentially totally abandoned.
