Our group of 5 consisted of a 13 year old boy, his father (me) and mother, and his (2) 74-year old grandparents; so a broad range of ages. Only one of us knew anything about vintage cars, and we went mostly for him. Just like our visit to Gold Daughters (separate review), this place ended up being a real hit with everyone in the group, regardless of preconceived notions or expectations. The cars were just amazing and in some instances surprising. A magnetic / electric / gas triple-hybrid from the early 1900’s?!?! Yes!. ~70 beautifully restored cars (out of a collection of 90+) housed in an immaculate show room with excellent information on every single car. Just as amazing as the cars were the vintage outfits everywhere you looked. Someone highly interested in early 20th century fashion would probably not even notice the cars, and vice-versa - but I appreciated all of it together. A lot of Alaska specific information peppered throughout the museum was fascinating; including early models of skimobiles and snowmobiles. Excellent vintage photographs blown up larger than posters hanging on the walls. A window to the garage where restoration work might occur. Couches all around for comfortable seating when tired. So many details here that I won’t be able to hit them all. Just a wonderful visit for all of us. Nate was the one who greeted us, answered questions throughout, and sent us on our way feeling well-cared for. None of us regretted the 2 hours spent at this excellent museum; and all of us were blown away that rare pieces of vintage automobiles could be found in Fairbanks, Alaska!

The Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum is an absolute must-visit when in Fairbanks! This museum is a treasure trove of beautifully preserved vintage cars, each with its own unique story. The collection is incredibly well-curated, showcasing automobiles from the late 1800s to the mid-1900s, all in pristine condition. What really sets this museum apart is the attention to detail—not just with the cars, but with the historical context provided. The displays are informative, with fascinating insights into the evolution of automotive design and the history of the era. The vintage clothing exhibits, which complement the cars, add an extra layer of charm. The staff here are knowledgeable and passionate, making the experience even more enjoyable. My husband is a car enthusiast and the docent there Mr. Jeremy Creamer spent a lot of time talking to us and telling us interesting historical facts about the car and Fairbanks. Fountainhead Antique Auto Museum is a must visit for car enthusiasts. Highly recommended!
