http://www.classics.com/acdmus.html I visited this museum with Mike Bouse, and some friends, if you like "gangster cars" but the little ones are cool too!

well, if you make it that far.... i will buy you lunch. My daughter now lives in that town, and i'm about to buy a membership to the museum, on accounta i am within walking distance every weekend. wonder if they'd let me bring my brother RaceyDave in with me?

then again, if you make it this far, i will also take you to another of my personal favorite museums: http://www.gilmorecarmuseum.org/

mbouse,

Might take you up on that lunch.

I sometimes work at University of Michigan so I can easily take a drive your way, it would be great to meet some of you guys IRL that I usually only meet thru internet otherwise.

Thanks for the link, that looks like a neat place to visit. I took the virtual tour and there are a lot of interesting little cars. I could see myself in either a 58 Goggomobil Dart, or a 58 Berkely B65.

I can't believe that's only 50 miles from me and I didn't know about it. I must have driven by it several times.

Hey Robert,
I am astounded as well.I was in that area recently ,and had no clue the museum was there!Are they trying to keep it a secret? I may head over this weekend.

We checked out the Studebaker museum, and it was cool. Much better than I anticpated. They did some interesting stuff to cars. That's in South Bend, which is a stones throw from Michigan. Then go check the holy grail of Notre Dame, which is why we went there to begin with.
