Like many visitors, I was a fan of the man before I even knew he had a museum for his incredible car collection. While Mr. Cussler now spends nearly all his time at his home in Arizona, the majority of his collection is here at the Museum. Whether or not you are a fan of his books, if you like beautiful cars, you'll enjoy a visit here. The staff is very friendly and the cars are well kept and each car has a descriptive card posted nearby that explains the significance and history of the car.
What an amazing and astounding collection. Many rare and one of a kind cars. Well worth the trip. It's a smaller collection but every car is a brilliant gem. I was stunned by so many beautiful cars. Many are featured in Clive Cussler's books and is great to see them in person. If you love classic automobiles, do not miss this awesome museum.
The cars are in excellent restored condition. This collection mainly has one certain style (upper class) of cars. I like the car museums that have more variety and more vintage cars. The cars are displayed in two rooms.
I am not a car person, but I went with my parents and little boy, and we had a pleasant visit. There is only minimal interpretation of the objects on display, and the relevant Cussler books are displayed near the appropriate cars. There were definitely some neat cars there (Stanley Steamer, for instance), and I enjoyed it more than expected. Nothing kid-specific (no hands-on section).
If you love old cars, you have to come to this museum and see Clive's cars. These cars have all been written about in his books. GREAT museum and collection of his cars!!
