After exploring Kingman, Arizona, we drove down part of the longest original stretch of Route 66 to the town of Seligman. Due to time restrictions, we didn’t stop at all the attractions along the route.
Hackberry General Store
The first stop after Kingman was the Hackberry General Store, which is a general store and souvenir shop. It was originally the Northside Grocery and Conoco station in the small town of Hackberry.
Northside Grocery opened in 1934 and closed in 1978. It sat vacant for several years until 1992, when it was purchased by artist Bob Waldmire. He sold it to John and Kerry Pritchard in 1998.
It’s possible to roam around the site and see all kinds of Route 66 memorabilia. Among the attractions is a small mechanic shop with rusted old car parts and two mannequins.
Another building nearby is labeled Music Hall but has a “keep out” sign on it. There are also plenty of rusted old cars on the property.
Truxton
Next, we made a quick stop in tiny Truxton to snap some photos of the Frontier Motel. It was built in the early 1950s.
There are also a few old service stations nearby.
Seligman
Finally, we rolled through Seligman before continuing on to Williams for the night. In Seligman, there are several colorful gift shops and restaurants. Among them are Angel and Vilma’s, run by local legend Angel Delgadillo, and Delgadillo’s Snow Cap Drive-In.
Down the street are the Rusty Bolt and Historic Seligman Sundries.
Next to the Roadkill Cafe, there’s a replica Wild West village and two water tanks that claim to hold 10,000 gallons of Seligman moonshine.
