Angel Delgadillo, 86, Known internationally as 'The Guardian Angel of Route 66,' bikes over to his barber shop / souvenir store after a mid-day nap to greet guests and sign a few autographs.  In 1987, just two years after Interstate 40 bypassed Seligman, Angel founded the Arizona Historic Route 66 Association.   Soon to follow, the remaining seven Route 66 States established similar organizations - all dedicated to rebuilding, preserving and continuing the legacy that is the Mother Road.
