Anyone who loves classic American high works of art, this is a great one to go look at. You start off your tour with getting a picture of you sitting in a Back to Future DeLorean copy which has a really nice brushed steel body. Then you start off with the horse carriage and early cars that were horseless carriages and can connect your phone to their Wifi scanning QR codes for videos and info about the car exhibits as you progress to the end which is the start. Lots of very very I mean very nice classic cars in this big garage. From Ford Model T to classic 1930's Hollywood Rolls Royces, I think a 1957 classic red and silver Bel Air which is so iconic of that America I always longed for, but was my parents era while they were teens which my mom did have a nice Bel Air just like this into the late 70;s until she wrecked it.

QR codes are available that give you a great deal more information about the cars as well as the history involved. The sets really put you into the timeframe that the vehicles were produced giving a sense of being there. In addition, the background sets and photos offer a wonderful dose of Missouri history. We also enjoyed learning a bit of background of the museum owner's family - which are from Missouri and have a 3 generation history of being in the potato chip business - which still operates today. Plan to spend several hours there to have time to read signs and watch some of the linked videos. A great time and a great value for...
Read moreThis is great collection of Mr. Backers'. It starts out the oldest and goes around to the newest. It has the back drop for the cars made to look like old time Fulton. Some of the pictures are actually residents, seen through the 'windows' of the stores. It is also has a banquet room area in the middle with a stage available to rent. Not all of the collection is there, but they hope to get it all there eventually. There was a super nice lady running the desk too. It has a small admission fee but if you like cars, it is worth it. (From a wife who's seen A LOT of car...
