Every September on my way to the Reno Air Races, I pass through the town of Goldfield where they filmed Super Souls radio broadcasting station. They started to restore the building, which is an old Hotel...but it's still unfinished, and they may never finish it for that matter. The town is not rolling in money, but hopfully someday...maybe. Goldfield is one of the many "almost" ghost towns that dot the road throughout Nevada. It's fun to picture a white Challenger parked in front of the building, but according to an old Mopar Muscle article a few years back....most of the people there don't remember the movie! One thing for sure....it is a speed trap, so watch your speed if you ever travel there. (On the good side...they don't use bulldozers to catch speeders, just radar.)
