How to visitFree; open field off I-40 (bring spray paint, pack out the can)

Ten vintage Cadillacs planted grille-first in a Panhandle field west of Amarillo since 1974, repainted by visitors in a daily fresh coat of spray paint. Bring a can, add your mark, and watch it disappear under someone else’s by morning.

Roadside attractions keep their own quirky hours and can change owners, close, or move — confirm it’s open before a long detour, respect private property and art, and leave it as iconic as you found it.
