  • Great experience! As pictured, Museum is a large warehouse containing hundreds of vehicles spanning all of humanity’s automotive endeavors. You start with a brief video introduction to the founder and facility, then meander through vehicles laid out from oldest to most recent. Most vehicles contain a tiny audio speaker with a red button on top, when pressed will give you a brief narration about the car you’re standing in front of. It’s a nice touch, but if the facility is at all noisy these narrations are difficult to hear. Staff was very friendly and welcoming, with the experience being reasonably priced and well maintained. Definitely worth checking out of you’re in the area.
  • Wow just really cool. Beautifully restored as well as all original cars from 1908 to 2012. My only criticism is that there are so many cars it is impossible to really get a good look at them individually because the are parked so close together. There are a few exceptions. Still all in all a fun day. Knowledgeable staff and very friendly service.
