Question: What iconic Texas filling station is featured in the 2006 Disney film Cars?

Answer: The U-Drop Inn, also known as the Tower Station and the Tower Cafe, was built in 1936 in Shamrock along historic Route 66, an unusual example of Art Deco architecture applied to a gas station and restaurant. It appears as Ramone’s automotive body and paint shop in the fictional town of Radiator Springs in the animated Pixar film Cars.
