Holy cow. The Sunday New York Times had an article about the Schlumpf brothers and their ginormous Bugatti collection. Apparently, some of their pre-war French cars were recently sold to the new Mullin Automotive Museum in Oxnard (between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara along the Pacific Coast).
Here is an article about the place from Hooniverse. Right now, it's only open once a month (June 12, July 10, August 10). Here are some shots of the Art Deco-intense interior and some of its cars.

That Hispano-Suiza is gorgeous, a real stunner. Vintage Bugattis and Tatras hold a fetishistic fascination for me, I need to make a trip.
ReplyDeleteIf you do go, Alan, it would be great if you shared some photos and your thoughts on the place. Thanks!
