Tour Highlights

Automobile history comes alive in Snook’s Dream Cars Automobile Museum fittingly located adjacent to one of America’s first cross- country highways, U.S. Route 6, in Bowling Green, Ohio. Your journey in the “past lane” begins as you step into an authentically recreated 1940s era Texaco filling station, featuring an extensive collection of “automobilia” — everything from hood ornaments and window cranks to seat covers, bug remover and backseat touring games.

You will continue past an operational, four-bay mechanics’ area where vintage vehicles are repaired, and into a working museum of coin-operated amusements, ranging from pinball and slot machines to a Model-T Kiddie Ride. You won’t want to miss the antique pedal cars, Texaco promotional items or the classic collection of automobile decanters, some still holding their original Jim Beam brew.

When you’ve had your fill of these “time machines,” wheel into a spectacular showroom of “Dream Cars” from the ‘30s, ‘40s, ‘50s, ‘60s and ‘70s. The Snook’s eclectic collection reflects the style and elegance of years past. Displayed in authentic settings, their vintage vehicles will take you back to a 1930s general store, a 1940s stroll through downtown Bowling Green, a 1950s diner, and a 1960s Sebring raceway pit lane.

A collection of WWII  memorabilia and a Jeep completes the living museum, where all the cars are running, reliable and ready to show. Be sure to visit our gift shop, to take a little bit of history home with you!

 

Nothing beats seeing our collection of coupes, convertibles, sedans, roadsters and race cars from the 1930s to the 1960s in person. We’d love to see you soon! Until then, take a virtual tour.
