The Illinois Route 66 Hall of Fame and Museum in Pontiac will have a new mural painted later this month, reports the Pontiac Daily Leader.
The artist doing the painting will be Route 66 artist Bob Waldmire, who is the unofficial inspiration to Fillmore, the VW minibus in the hit summer movie “Cars.”
Waldmire’s artwork also will be on display. Starting Sept. 30, he’ll be at the museum from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
