"Doug Michels died in June [2004] --just as Ant Farm, the art/architecture collective he founded, was about to be rediscovered. He and his former partners had spent the past year working on a museum exhibition of the group's output from 1968 to 1978."

Funny that local article doesn't mention that the cars were completely covered with graffiti, which is abundantly clear from all the tourist photos you found. Maybe that was just understood in Amarillo, where they don't call it art but a "point of interest."
