If you love cars, or even just like cars, this is one unbelievable museum. The cars on display, (over 120), are some of the most exquisite cars ever made and from a time period long forgotten. See Auburns, Cords, and Duesenbergs which were some of the most beautiful ever made. Actors, gangsters, and anyone who wanted to show the world that they had arrived, had to own one of these. The building in which they are housed was the old Cord corporate office and showroom. The building itself is a wonderful art deco design and is in excellent shape.

Was in town to take in the auto and truck museums. Stopped by this one and it was holding a small swap meet. We were invited inside to tour the museum. We were treated to a great history lesson about a few of the great cars on display. We learned more from the guys than the signs in front of the cars could ever attempt to explain. I have visited a lot of auto related museums over the years and this one was the cleanest ( the vehicles and the facility) I've ever been in. Great collection- trucks, tractors, cars and the way they are displayed was a pleasure to look at. The passion and knowledge of the volunteers was a pleasant experience. Josh,the curator, shared many great stories and future plans for the facility. We look forward to coming back. Thanks for a great time.

There is a wide range of vehicles to look over. The have Katherine Hepburn's Crown Victoria on display and a police car from Maumee Ohio (hometown). Unfortunately the Futurliner was out of town. Really enjoyed the basement with the old trucks. The Endeavor III is on display. This vehicle set several land speed records. Looking forward to visiting again.
