If there’s one thing we Michiganders are proud of, it’s our history with the automobile industry. Despite the ups and downs faced by Detroit, it will always be known as the Motor City — and we wouldn’t have it any other way. There’s one incredible museum here in the Great Lakes State that celebrates our history as car-makers while representing vehicles from around the globe, and you’ll have to see it for yourself.
The Gilmore Car Museum is located at 6865 W Hickory Road in Hickory Corners.
This massive collection of cars and automobile-related exhibits sits on 90 acres of land, making it the largest museum of its kind in the United States.
With over 300 incredible vehicles to peruse, the Gilmore is a true car-lover’s paradise. There’s something here from every era and to suit every taste.
Start out your visit with an exploration of the automobile’s early days and a walk through the museum’s Model T collection. It’s a fascinating glimpse at life before cars were commonplace.
Each and every piece at the Gilmore is impeccably cared for and preserved, which makes it one of the best places imaginable to explore the world of cars.
You’ll have the chance to browse everything from fascinating sports cars to early collectors’ vehicles, all displayed neatly throughout the Gilmore Car Museum.
There’s even a replica of a 1930s Shell gas station — talk about a step back in time! This bright and beautiful attraction is a guest favorite, and with good reason.
Younger visitors will be especially enthralled by the museum’s wide selection of vintage car-related toys, which covers decades of unique (and fun!) pieces.
