The California Automobile Museum in Sacramento (formerly the Towe Auto Museum) is a volunteer-run operation. It has a very eclectic mix of cars.
This Jag was parked outside when I visited one bright sunny afternoon. I'll bet it belongs to one of the docents.
In addition to a permanent collection, private car owners lend their cars to the museum for display. One example is this bronze Maserati Mistral.
Here are a couple of Fiats.
This Maserati Indy owner happens to love guns. Got a problem with that?
Mistral, Indy, Bora.
Motorcycle from TV series CHiPs.
Firebird! I so wanted this as my first car.
1971 Star Streak RV.
Nissan Altra Electric Vehicle.
Chrysler 300.
Edsel. The museum has dozens and dozens of pre- and post-war American iron. I've neglected to take pictures of them due to time constraints. Apologies.
Not a fan of the Countach's color. But this is an interesting juxtaposition.
At the gift shop, I saw this set for $95. I got mine for $25 on Craigslist!
i'm guessing i would need to pry that indy from his cold, dead hands?
ReplyDelete@MTC: Apparently, Heston drove a Jag.
