The Gilmore Car Museum, recognized as North America’s largest auto museum, is an ideal venue for this grand event. Founded in the early 1960s by Donald S. Gilmore, the museum began as a private collection of vintage automobiles. Some of Gilmore’s initial acquisitions included a 1927 Ford Model T, a 1913 Rolls Royce, and a 1920 Pierce Arrow. With the support of his wife, Genevieve, the Gilmores transformed their collection into a museum to share these unique vehicles with future generations.
The museum’s 90-acre historic campus is home to a variety of vintage structures, such as a restored 1941 Silk City Diner, a recreated 1930s Shell gas station, and an 1890s train depot. These settings enhance the overall experience, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in automotive history.
