Not to be missed! Both the cars and the surrounding exhibits were fantastic.
MoreNice selection of cars. We spent about 2 hours there. I wished there were vehicles from the 50s, 60s and 70s though.
MoreA must see for those who love old & restored or refurbished automobiles! You can see how much funding went to each car’s restoration. The historical evolution of automobiles combined with how our interstate roadways have been found to be a much needed necessity, its planning & construction and to what it is now; from Lincoln Hway to I-80.If you are looking for close up experiences on old automobiles, this is the place! You might just find what you are looking for—the luxurious cars of the past, the first automobile & how futuristic cars can possibly look like if you look really close.
MoreThis is a great specialty museum, especially for those who admire antique cars. The heart of the collection is the group of cars assembled by Harrah, but there is more than that. Each car has a complete set of information so you will learn a lot. And the display is pleasant. Great place for nostalgia and for kids.
MoreThe visit was good with the exception of one hostile female employee. She needs to stay in the back office.Wrong info on one display of Indian motorcycles; they are still made in the USA and sold in Sturgis, SD.Displays were amazing.
