Hoods UP!

Get ready for a rare under-the-hood experience. During Hoods UP, we’ll open the hoods of select vehicles throughout the collection, giving you an up-close look at the engineering, craftsmanship, and beauty normally hidden from view.

From polished brass and hand-finished castings to innovative designs that changed automotive history, this is your chance to see what truly makes these machines run. Our team and volunteers will be on hand to share insights, stories, and technical details about the engines that powered their eras.

Whether you’re a lifelong enthusiast, a curious newcomer, or a family looking for a unique outing, Hoods UP offers a perspective you don’t often get inside a museum.

Join us and discover the artistry, complexity, and ingenuity beneath the hoods.

No tickets or reservations necessary, all are welcome!
