. Its a little out of the way but well worth the drive. You must make reservations to go into the other building to see where the cool cars are. The music room at the top was great

We have been to LA many times, but never heard of this place. I guess the Peterson museum is on everyone’s lips (which is great and more modern) but this museum had an outstanding collection of vintage motor vehicles. Tip : best to go early to beat the crush. It got busy an after we arrived.…

we really liked the museum. It’s better to arrive early, then there are fewer people and you can take cool photos without a crowd. Beautiful and rare cars)

An absolute hidden gem in southern Los Angeles! Be sure to take your family (sons/daughters, grandkids), and friends (in town or out of town) visit this museum! We did it yesterday and enjoyed both self-guided and guided tours tremendously. You should allow 4 hours for fun! It has a huge parking lot next to the museum. All cars are exquisitely restored to their original form and functionally drivable automobiles. Every year each car will be taken out of the museum for a joy ride in town, onto the highway, and drive through! 1) Go online to reserve your tickets for the free 2-hour guided tour on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday at 10 am or 1:30 pm. 2) Be sure to spend an extra two hours before or after and visit the other building (free to roam around) and the train. 3) In the last part of the guided tour, go to the 4th floor - music room, grab a sofa, just sit back and enjoy the music while relaxing your legs and toes. It was just heavenly enjoyable! The organ music was just amazing! 4) Bonus: it is FREE! 5) You can also check out other events on the website for silent movies and organ music! 6) The gentleman who is the curator of the museum is an absolutely awesome and very knowledgeable tour guide. He gave a very informative history of every car and every piece of musical instrument in the museum! He is the one who makes every piece of musical instrument functionally working in the museum! This place just has an awesome and incredible collection of treasures!…
