I haven't either. But it's something I would mind visiting.
I think Jay Leno should open up his garage as a museum. He's got more cars in there than most museums.

one of my favorite museums, although it doesn't have many cars, is the Star Car Museum in Gatlinburg, TN. most museums have ropes aorund cars.. you can actually get inside some of these cars (with a museum worker present) and get a picture. all of hte other cars, you can actually touch. you can take flash pictures. very open musuem...


theres several good car museums in the Gatlinburg, Sevierville, Pigeon Forge area.

We have the Peterson and the NHRA museums within minutes of us and I've been to neither.

Quite the car fan huh?

Only car museum I've ever been to (other then my own of course) is Deerfield Village in Deerborn, MI.

At the time I was there, there was a group of people speaking in a strange dialect. I guessed Greek.

They were climbing over the ropes set up to preserve the cars so they could set in them. (what a shame they did not respect the wishes of the museum owners to stay off the vehicles)
