It stands to reason that there would be an excellent exhibit showcasing the automobile at the Henry Ford Museum.
Driving America, the world’s leading auto exhibit, proudly presents a collection of vehicles that have significantly shaped history, each with its own unique story to tell.
The exhibit tells how automotive innovations have changed our lives and influenced American culture, from the 1865 Roper, the oldest surviving American car and Henry Ford’s first gas-powered vehicle, to the hybrid 2002 Prius.
This museum area tells the history of the automobile and showcases the birth of road trips, gas stations, and motor inns.

If I’m not mistaken, the huge limousine with the flags at the front was once the President’s official car?
You are right. I can’t remember which president, though.
Roosevelt and Truman – according to Wikipedia – between 1939 and 1948.
Thank you!
It really looks like such a terrific collection! I’d love to see it sometime
I only photographed a small number of the massive collection. You would love it!
Love that T-bird
It’s a beautiful car!
