There is a brand new museum you can visit
I'll start this week by letting you know about a brand-new museum that just opened this month. The St. Charles Motorcycle Museum is now open.
With Thanksgiving this Thursday, I’m sure you’re very busy, so I will keep this week’s email brief. Remember, if you don’t care to read any of this, all you have to do is scroll to the bottom of the email, and you’ll see the three main automotive museums I mention.
Keep in mind that my intention is not to tell you everything about every museum. All I want to do is make you aware of a place you could visit if you want to. You can click on the hyperlinked name of the museum in this portion of the email or click to read more at the bottom to learn more about the museums.
The theme this week is Hall of Fame. There are quite a few “Hall of Fames” across the country, and each one is unique to the individual museums. In fact, I counted 18 of them. You can use the search function on automotivemuseumguide.com to find all of them. Just type in “hall of fame” and you’ll see them all.
The three halls of fame I share with you this week are some of the oldest additions to the Automotive Museum Guide. Which, of course, is why I chose to update them and share them with you.
First up is the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America. This is a 15,000-square-foot museum located at the Daytona International Speedway. As you can imagine, this museum is packed with various racing artifacts.
The NASCAR Racing Hall of Fame is another museum specific to racing but also even more specific to just NASCAR. I’ve been to this museum before I had any idea I’d be engulfed in this automotive museum world. It is a big, impressive museum located in downtown Charlotte and you do not have to even be a NASCAR fan to have a good time.
The Automotive Hall of Fame is another museum I’ve had the privilege of visiting. This museum isn’t packed with vehicles, although there are vehicles on display. Instead, the museum focuses on a broader aspect of automotive history, beyond just the vehicles. There is a lot to read and learn at this museum, and if you need to see a few more cars afterward, you can literally walk to The Henry Ford Museum next door.
That’s it for this week. Let me know what your preference is. Do you prefer to just see what the 3 museums are and delete the email? Or do you enjoy some of my automotive museum insights and experience?
Either way, I hope you find value in learning about automotive museums you can visit.
Have a great week and Happy Thanksgiving!

I still remember it like yesterday. It was the end of 2016, and I was forced to decide whether to start the museum
I love discovering new automotive museums. Sometimes, it is a museum that has been around, but it took me a while to find it.
One of the most common, generic questions I get asked in the museum is, how much are these cars worth?
The results are in, and Miles Through Time Automotive Museum is a major contender, at least for museums people want to visit.
The problem is, these lists only represent about 6% of the automotive museums you can visit in North America.
Automotive museums are unique, both in the museum world and from a traditional business standpoint.
One of the neat things about "automotive museums" is that there are a lot of different approaches one can take to creating a museum.
I enjoy the vast array of automotive museums all over the country. One day, hopefully, sooner than later, I'll also be able to experience some automotive museums abroad.
I'm back now that it is 2025. Quite a few people thought I was done completely when I said last week's email was the last one for 2024.
