Description
The Wisconsin Automotive Museum displays more than ninety collectible autos including such rarities as a Hudson Essex Terraplane, a Reo Flying Cloud, and a Pierce-Arrow. The collection also includes vintage American standards such as Pontiacs, Studebakers, Chevrolets and Fords, all arranged in the striking Art Deco interior of Wisconsin's largest auto museum. But the real stars of the museum are two Wisconsin-made automobiles: the Kissel, which was manufactured in Hartford from 1906 to 1931, and the Nash, which was built in Kenosha from 1916 to 1957. The museum also displays a collection of automobile signs and advertising art, as well as license plates, spark plugs and oil cans. A series of industrial and outboard engines built in Hartford from 1936-1992 is also exhibited, along with a huge operating layout of Lionel trains.
