    This place is great. It is a fun place and amazing to see all the automobiles together. I'm sad to see the collection get split up. My family all enjoyed this place... Ages 18-12. It was also cool with the Elvis car and section of movie posters that he started in. It close March 31st...Go if you can... You won't be disappointed.

    The collection was incredible with many rare vehicles from the 1800's and early 1900's If you have time in March go see it. My wife and I were driving through, saw a sign and stopped - So glad we did. What was even more special was Ms. Spain taking the time to visit with us and share her dreams of using the auction proceeds. Thank you.
