They should advertise this place more. There are so many rare cars, I think all American made. They have the Kissel, a car made here in this building and a make I never hear of.

Beautifully executed and folksy exhibit of early 1900 to 70's cars of many different genres. Emphasis on Wisconsin production Kissel, Nash, Rambler, AMC, Jeep, but lots of others like first...

It was amazing! We went on a double date with my in-laws and we all enjoyed seeing the beautiful cars, train, Southeastern Wisconsin Short Track Hall of Fame, and many more cool items that brought back memories and sparked fun conversations! Thank you for the great experience!

This is not your typical auto museum. 40% is really focuses on two long gone local auto makers and marine engine builders. The other 40%, racing and many collectibles you would expect and some you don't. Then the massive steam powered 10%...complete surprise! Must visit.

We found this place online and took our grandson there today. It turned out to be a great choice! Everyone was friendly and helpful. The car displays were very nicely done. A great variety of vehicles starting from the early 1900s. The cost was incredibly reasonable. Hartford also has a very nice selection of restaurants to visit before or after your visit. Would definitely go again!

Wonderful way to spend the afternoon. I could post more pictures, but really you should just go.

Lots of beautiful old cars even my wife liked it. Wish I could go back in time and purchase a few Kissels and others to start my collection.
