Midwest Petroleum Company has commissioned Ray Harvey Art to create a new mural for the atrium wall at the Cuba, Missouri location. The painting, which will measure forty-eight feet wide, will depict the nostalgic transportation on Route 66. The design will incorporate an estimated ten classic vehicles including autos such as a 1959 Cadillac and Ford Fairlane, a 1953 Corvette, a 1965 Mustang GT and others. The mural will be viewed in the entrance to the restaurant which serves thousands of customers traveling Interstate 44 which runs parallel to The Mother Road of Route 66. The design by Ray Harvey was presented and approved by owner Don McNutt of Midwest Petroleum yesterday with the final art being started by next week. The mural is expected to take three weeks for completion. With anticipation of this successful first painting there is already talk of continuing the mural to the other adjacent walls showing additional Cuba, MO transportation including air, rail and transport. This painting will mark an estimated twenty-two murals and scenes by Ray Harvey in the Cuba, Mo area.
