Cheap admission to the history of Ypsilanti through the cars and parts it built. Seeing the four, autographed last transmissions built in a massive factory that had been in operation since WWII building bombers, then cars, the automatic transmissions is heady stuff. It's amazing what was lost due to GMs mismanagement. Though it focuses on the products, the museum serves as a reminder of Michigan's manufacturing might and the people's flexibility. Some of the cars here are rare, some are one of a kind, but they're all immaculate and worth a look or two.

What a hidden gem this is. If you love automotive history, cars, motors, etc. This is a must see if you are in the area. It is open until 4 pm Wed to Sunday. This little museum is in the last Hudson car sales business there was in the USA. It is small but has some wonderful old autos you won't see anywhere else. Be sure to go to the upstairs area there is alot of automotive history in the cases up there. Staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and were happy to answer all questions.. Admission at the time of this review was only 5 bucks.

Truly amazing Automotive Museum tucked away in this town. They had so many Hudsons, Kaisers and Chevrolet Corvairs. The people working at the museum had a wealth of knowledge about the history of the cars and obviously were passionate about them. If you are in the Detroit area and you like antique cars, this is a great destination for you.

We loved our visit to this place! I met Jack Miller years ago when it was a the old Miller motors Hudson dealership. Jack passed away a couple years ago and he is most certainly missed! The gentlemen who welcomed us were gracious and knowledgeable! Thank you for a great time!
