We were delighted to have fellow car collector (and celebrity) Jay Leno visit our museum last month. Jay and Marvin spent a couple of hours discussing cars, and not surprisingly, Jay was knowledgeable about all of the cars in the collection!
We were pleasantly surprised at how friendly and down-to-earth Jay was to all of us. He even took the time to take photographs with a family who was visiting the museum that day.
What a great day at the museum!
We are delighted to offer a new and improved audio tour, accessible with your smart phone!
The tour provides interesting information and details about the automobiles of The Collection on Palmetto and is narrated in the voices of friends and family members.
From the 1886 Benz Patent Motorwagen to the 1969 Jaguar XKE, peruse the entire collection at your own pace with your cell phone.
As always, we offer docent-led tours and engine demonstrations daily. We hope that you will stop by The Collection on Palmetto today to learn more about what we consider the most fascinating era in automobile history, the Brass Era.
Experts, advocates and enthusiasts, tell your story here. Listeners, bring your love of learning. After all, "no story lives unless someone wants to listen." - J.K. Rowling
Planning a car tour for your local or national club? This can't-miss collection of brass cars should be the first stop on your itinerary.
We love our community. Join us for community days featuring live engine demonstrations, brass cars, music and food.
Reserve your pass from your local library and stop on by the Collection on Palmetto.
