This former Texaco station has been renovated since this photo was snapped and is now a BnB. The Gas Station and Garage buildimg from the mid-50s is a fixture on Route 66 in Ash Fork, the 1960 DeSoto on the roof might be part of the reason. The station was converted to DeSoto's Salon in 2001 by Joe and Edie DeSoto, so no, it's not named after the car. But they did reportedly drive around town in a 1949 DeSoto to promote the business. The Salon closed around 2011. I'm not sure who put the caar on the roof.

Photo(s): 2013

x About Us We started traveling Historic U.S. Route 66 as a destination in 2009. It's like a 2,400 mile long drive back in time from Chicago to Santa Monica! more
xDid You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned lanes are still there.
