That's really a shame about the museum closing.  An AMAZING collection of cars...!!! 

I hope it wasn't caused by someone slipping on the puddle of drool on the floor as I stood looking at that red '70 LT-1 convertible (click to see the car)...!!!  🤪  🤣

The owner died.  It's gonna kill that town.  He owns most of the buildings on that main street and was trying to revitalize it.
