A Night at the Museum was a hit!

On Thursday December 10, we tried something a little different.  We opened our doors at 5:00 pm and kept the overhead lights off.  Guests were allowed to stroll through the museum by the light of the neon signs and also our holiday decorations.  Guests were also given a free glow necklace to enjoy while touring.  Extra lighting was placed under the hoods of select vehicles as well.  We received a lot of great feedback and look forward to hosting another “Night at the Museum” in the future.

Veterans Day 2020

Since we cannot open on Veterans Day this year, we’ve decided to go virtual.  We will give a walk-through of the museum on Wednesday, November 11 beginning at 1:00 pm on our Facebook page. We will be selling raffle tickets with some great prizes!  Information will be posted on our events tab.  We want to make sure that veterans know that even though we can’t all gather physically, we will never forget them or what they’ve done for us.  All proceeds will benefit Guardian Angels Medical Service Dogs.  Stay tuned for more information!

Cruise Out 2020! Taking it on the road!

On Tuesday, June 2, we set out to bring smiles to the faces of those who usually do that for us.  We had a Cruise Out with museum cars, staff and volunteer cars, and some visitor cars and to eight senior living centers and Henry Ford Hospital in Clinton Township.  We wanted to let the seniors know how much we missed them and let the staff at the hospital know their efforts are appreciated.  It turned out to be a pretty warm day and we lost a car or two along the way to the heat but also gained a few!  We want to thank everyone who took part in this wonderful event.  We received thank you calls and cards from the locations we visited stating the residents really enjoyed the cars.  We have to say that once again, they are the ones that brought smiles to our faces.  We miss you all and can’t wait to see you again!

1919 Arbuckle Pierce-Arrow has arrived!

This incredible 1919 Pierce-Arrow 66 A-4 Touring car recently arrived at the collection after making an appearance at the 2020 Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance.  The car was custom-built for vaudevillian and early motion picture star, Roscoe C. “Fatty” Arbuckle.  The coachwork was a very early design by a young Harley J. Earl for Don Lee Coachbuilders in southern California.  Earl would eventually move on to a stellar design career at General Motors.  The chassis has a 147.5″ wheelbase and 36″ tires.  The gas tank holds 32 gallons since the car seldom got more than 4 miles to the gallon.

Though we are temporarily closed due to the recommendations of the CDC, we will be open again soon and you will be able to see this beauty in person!  Stay tuned to our social media and web page for updates!
