This public art installation has been around since 1974, when a group known as the Ant Farm stuck 10 Cadillacs in the ground on the outskirts of Amarillo. The cars – which represented ten models during the big-tail-fin era of Cadillacs – were put in at the same angle as the great pyramid at Giza.

In the 1990s, the installation was moved a few miles further from town: development had caught up to it. At some point along the way, it became a thing to spray paint the cars and at this point they appear to be more paint than car.

You can read more about it here.

Or, if you prefer, you can listen to Bruce Springsteen sing about it.
