The friendly and knowledgeable staff is what makes this place! There isn’t a large amount of cars but that is okay because there is also other things to look at. Lots of KC history told here. The staff really took the time to tell great information about the cars which made it fun for everyone in our group. We will return again in the future when they rotate vehicles and hear more stories. Keep up the good work!

There are some outstanding antique cars here. A variety of old cars with a really knowledgeable staff. It is tucked away but well worth the visit.

Hidden gem of a museum, small but very comfortable, lots of KC automotive history and a nice assortment of race cars and everyday cars, old and up to the 70s, check before going to see if they have a special display happening.

"don't touch" is on every single car, so young children don't have the patience for it. It's a good collection of cars but very small. I feel the admission is justified because I can only imagine what the owners are charging for loaning their cars out.

This museum is rather small and rather expensive. It is mostly for people really into automobiles and racing, not the casual public.

Fun place to visit, particularly the race simulators. Good amenities for a museum of this size including restrooms, gift shop, car club corner refreshments. Docent lead tour was very informative about the museum and the autos on display. Allow 2 hours.

Very cool classic car museum! The setting is really cool and there's many fine old cars to look at. The owner of this place obviously has a great love of fine classic cars!

This small museum has a rotating assortment of cars things for kids to see and do and some unique KC history. Every other Saturday they sponsor a Cars and Coffee event attracting many classics, hot rods, and cycles from the community.

Loved this place! Super nice people! We happened to catch them changing out the themed room, and one of the gentlemen gave us a tour himself. Then let us walk around on our own. Can't wait to go back with our kiddos!

If you don't stumble across this museum or someone does not mention it to you, you don't know what you are missing. It is more than the cars - it is the history and the historical ties to the KC/Midwest region.
