Went to Birmingham recently for a weekend to celebrate my birthday. I had seen a piece on the Mustang Museum of Alabama on a local television station last year and it had piqued my interest. While in Birmingham, my wife & I rode up to Odenville on a Saturday to visit the museum. I was not sure exactly what to expect, but found it was great! There are Mustangs from 1964 ½ to 2015 (a Wimbledon White Anniversary Edition), with the exception of three model years missing (during our visit, at least). I thoroughly enjoyed literally walking through the real-life history of the Mustang. It was interesting to see the evolution of the model over the years all under one roof (yes, even the Mustang II was represented ). Even my wife, who is not necessarily a car person, wound up enjoying it as much as I did. A very nice collection of Mustang memorabilia is sprinkled throughout the museum as well. There is also a display of SSP Mustangs used by various law enforcement agencies and such over the years. One of the owners was there and was very friendly, knowledgeable and enjoyable to talk Mustangs with. All in all, we spent about two hours at the museum. Definitely a must-see for Mustang fans, but car lovers in general will appreciate. A very nice tribute to the heritage...
Read moreI have liked Ford Mustangs ever since I was a kid. I did not know there was a museum here in Alabama dedicated to this iconic automobile. Who doesn’t love Eleanor the 1967 Mustang from Gone in 60 seconds with Nicholas Cage. There is even a Pink Playboy Playmate Mustang. Unfortunately, you can not open the doors, the hoods, or sit in them, but they are cool to look at and dream about owning one of them. There are police cars from most of the States. I think it would great if they offered the ability to test drive one of police cars so you can turn on the lights and see what it was like to drive one of them, for a small fee of course. If you are a Mustang fanatic, you won’t be disappointed...
Read moreThis is an amazing museum with all the cars of 50 years of Mustang history! It is a huge well lit building full of Mustangs from 1964 1/2 to 2015, along with much Mustang memorabilia. There are screens throughout the museum playing Mustang videos and vintage commercials. There is also a special section of highway patrol Mustangs - find your state or favorite law enforcement agency. You can walk among and around all the cars at your own pace, and take all the pictures you want. The museum proprietor is friendly and knowledgeable, this is obviously a labor of love. This is an absolute must see for any Ford Mustang fan. Located on the outskirts of Birmingham AL, it is definitely...
