- TARDIS transcontinental road trip, Friday, June 12 2015. Goldfield Nevada and Gemfield Road, we followed the La Rea Belt. U.S. 95 north and U.S. 6 west. Montgomery Pass ghost town motel and into the sunset, on the road to California.
Loved Vanishing Point from the moment it came out. As a UK driver I'm so envious of you American folks with your beautiful big roads, wild scenery and big mile munching V8 cars. Must have been fantastic to be in the States during the glorious muscle car years.
The US is still full of open roads and has wonderful memories of the past along Rte 66, especially in Arizona, New Mexico. and Texas. Gas is still in the $3 - $4 range as I write this. My wife and I just completed a 5,600 miles Rte 66 trip in our Trans Am (needs premium gas) and we'll never forget it. If you get the opportunity to 'come over', get rental with a V8 if available (probably a Mustang which is cool!) and enjoy the experience before it is gone forever.
"Mile munching V8" = gas guzzling V8. My Japanese econo-TARDIS with it's glorified lawnmower engine took me all over just the same, and the experience was great. Unless you're in a race, superior horsepower is a costly waste. I hope you have the opportunity to take such a road trip yourself.
How Cool! Thank You for this! Somewhere Cleavon Little is smiling!
Thanks for posting this. I saw this on TV around the late 1970's. Besides Barry Newman. Features Cleavon Little, Paul Koslo, Carl Swenson, Severn Darden, and Dean Jagger.
Gotta love Vanishing Point!!
"The La Rea Belt"; nice! Well, I think you're starting to get the fundamentals of it, son! Thanks for posting this, two more places I can go to on my VP bucket list.
Goldfield Hotel. Looks like it did in '70. Thanks for doing these VP gigs.
It’s the great supporting actors that makes this movie so impactful.
Kowalski Lives!

I'll stop by here on my next trip to Reno. Thanks for posting.
I dream of one day buying a white 1970 Dodge Challenger and visiting these places.
Love that at 19 seconds in, the car passes older classic cars on the right side of the road. How fitting.
Apparently I'm not the only new Yorker interested in this good video man
Wow dude thanks for that video always love the movie vanishing point I can't believe them buildings are still standing cool dude thanks
Cara bons tempos, obrigado por postar este video!!!!! Saudade dessa epoca! Thanks for posting.
Thanks for shooting and posting this.
Thanks for the history lesson. Love it
Been there over year ago great place great people
Thanks so much for this!
Nice video. The Tardis also looks different these days
Vanishing Point and some loving touches to Doctor Who... two favourite worlds collide!
The ghost of Supersoul still tellin it like it is. Watch out for the Big Blue Meanies. Copy that.The film crew managed to destroy 8 of those gorgeous white Dodge Challenges R/T’s. I believe none of the screen used cars survived the shoot. The cars were not that strong to enough to survive the intense punishment they copped.👍🇦🇺😁🤪☮️
This series is very well done.
Nice vídeos "speeta". I loved
Sad to see that in the movie there is so quiet and peaceful in the town. Now, lots of traffic noise like most places now a days.
The Goldfield Hotel has been featured in a couple of episodes of "Ghost Adventures".
What is the address for the radio station?
Got a Google Maps pinpoint of Faith Healers Bluff?

is it me or is the camera freaking out like there's something wrong
+Mario Rizo it's the video editor salvaging extremely shaky handheld video. Or it's the mescaline.
+speeta oh ok
Was through mid March 2018. Hit Austin and the abandoned section of old 95 used as the Nevada state line (Paint truck). As fate would have it, I left my reference photos at home. I am still not sure where the "faithhealer" scene was, is it on the road to Gemfield?
skiidahonorthsouth you are correct!
That Hotel is HAUNTED to hell and back,, see it on the T V show reruns
@ 0:19 secs you can see a few wrecked muscle car projects to the right of the screen.
Why is the Hotel empty. What hap.
idak12 not enough business since the town's boom years, and the very large building is in a state of arrested decay/renovation, not in shape to function.
Very sad that such a piece of Americana, and film history, is allowed to rot.
I was there in Sept. 2018 and they were in the process of renovating it.
peta missed the free the vipers. big rattle snake hit his head.
I didn't like the snake preacher.
He comes across as a cult leader, possibly dangerous, with some chance of bringing his followers to a bad end.
Wo
free the viper's lol
Gads the sound..ruined the video
