Mark Johansson has posted a map of automotive related museums in the United  States.

The map includes all automotive related museums in the United States and we lited out their address, phone number, and website if that information was available.

Many of these museums put on events like open houses, auctions, swap meets, workshops, and other fun events and they are a great resource for car and motorsport enthusiasts.  We wanted to put togerher a map so people can easily find a museum that is near their location.
