Petit Jean Antique Car Museum

This museum is nestled on the way up to the top of a mountain in Arkansas. I am not sure who decided to build an antique car museum here or why they selected this site, but it works. you can tell when it was built it was state of the art.
I was surprised how much was here. There have to be at least 50 cars. Each one is polished and beautifully kept. There is even a car owned by Elvis and one owned by President JFK.
There are antique cars dated back to the beginning of cars, and various different types of vehicles, popcorn and candy trucks. They are all parked on a bed of rocks inside of the museum and roped off. Each of the vehicles has its own story printed on a display for you to read. It was nice that it was actually a museum of cars, not just photographs of them. There are a few little games and quarter machines. Some how you can picture the museum full of people in love with old cars, but it was quiet.
It was worth the drive to see. We were the only ones in there and had a ball. Sometimes there is a car show in the parking lot, I will go back again and try to catch a one. The area just outside of the museum is very pretty surrounded by large trees. It looks like a nice place to have a picnic.

The drive to this mountain top is gorgeous. The car museum has some interesting cars; one from the King (Elvis)!
