I went up to Chicago last weekend and stopped off at this rest stop,and this is what i found.The models were really well built.I'm so glad i had my camera.

A rest area with models or a truck stop?
I know around most areas, If it aint made of Concrete, it's stolen or damaged.

Models look great tho..

I've been in that one before but just can't place the location.Was this off I-55 and if it was,was it north or south of Springfield.I'll be heading up to Evanston,IL. on Monday to do a dealer trade for a Mazda dealership and am going to hit every rest stop on the way to find it.

the rest area was called Funks Grove Rest Area Mc Lean, IL 61754 north of Springfield IL It's got that crazy curved road going to the rest area.I hope you get a fun car to take up there.
