I suppose a patrol car like this must have cruised US Route 6 circa 1950-something. (Or - 60-something?). Even in Manhattan, on a stormy April Saturday in 2011, I find myself exposed to reminders of my chosen cross-country route. No signs indicated that this Iowa Patrol car cased Route 6 in particular, but I'm pretty sure this vehicle existed prior to the construction of the Interstate and therefore it would be a pretty good guess that it covered "Highway 6." If anyone out there (Dave, Rex?) can "steer" me in right direction, I'd love to know!
