    I too would like to visit his museum.

    Stop and think of all the parts he had to sell in order to afford those works of art and to be able to keep them up. Mind boggling!
     
  11. For anyone that has not stoped at this outstanding colection of hot rod & race car goodies you need to do this as it is unlike anything you will see anywhere else in the world. Something for everyone even the wife.

    The Miller-Offenhauser display is unbelievable, right down to the drafting table Leo Goossen used to design it all.

    Smitty is just showing you the cars, there are walls full of lunch boxes, ceiling full of guitars signed by the entertainers, pedal cars, it's unbelievable. Just got back from there at couple of weeks ago.

    Neat pix. I've heard and seen so much about that museum over the years, and it looks like I'll finally get my chance to see it in early September. Thanx for the booster shot! Gary

    Every car person needs to see this collection. It is absoultely amazing. These pictures are great, but only a very small part of the collection. The cost to see the collection is very small to see such a fantastic collection. You will enjoy every minute that you are in the museum.
