Simeone Foundation Auto Museum

Very cool.

I noticed a new auto museum in Cartersville Georgia a couple months ago while driving through. It hadn't opened at the time but may be now. I think it's called the Savoy auto museum.

Thank you for posting the pics. I really believe the signs that say "adopted by so and so" is true. At the end of the day, we are all just caretakers.

I have been wanting to get to the Simeone, now I am more motivated. There is supposed to be another museum in Philly with other original cars, the 1922 Oldsmobile Super Sport that we recommissioned is reportedly there.

-REVS is incredible when my Grandparents lived in Naples from 86-98 we went to the Collier museum every other year.
Probably where I fell in love with Vintage Race Cars.

The owner of Cinci Microwave also bought a 288 GTO new(my favorite "NEW" Ferrari), wonder if he still owns it?

Do you know the make of the 2nd car in this photo? Appears grey with dark blue trim?

Looks similar to my former father in law's 1911 -1912 Pierce Arrow Raceabout, which raced at the Indy 500 in 1912 or 13.

The farthest car in the row is a MERCER.
The car between the Red car & the Renault in the foreground?

It's a 1912 National Model 40 Semi-Racer

The museum also do a great summer event called the Philadelphia Concours d' Elegance, that benefits Childrens Hospital. A wonderful event
