Places to visit for gear heads and car nuts!

There are so many places to visit in this country from museums, to road side attractions, shows & events, to enjoy seeing uniques cars and enjoying our hobby/business. I think it would be fun to list some of them. As we get more members in this group, please add your suggestions and I will collect them for a list on our blogs.  I can start by adding the George Bugg Collection in Athens. Probably the only way to get in is when there is a group or club setting up an appointment.
