Volo Auto Museum

The Volo Auto Museum is an automotive museum in Illinois that displays over 300 vintage vehicles spread across multiple buildings. The collection features rare models and restored classics spanning different decades.

The museum was founded in 1960 and grew from a small private collection into one of the largest automotive museums in the United States. Its expansion reflects decades of steady acquisition and development.

The museum displays vehicles from well-known films and television series, showing how cars became part of American popular culture. Visitors can see these cars and learn about the roles they played in entertainment.

The museum is open daily and offers visitors several ways to explore the collection, including guided tours and workshop visits. An on-site shop sells automotive souvenirs and collectibles for visitors to take home.

The museum actively runs a purchasing program where staff seek out vintage cars directly from private owners and restore them before showing to the public. This means the collection constantly grows and refreshes with newly acquired vehicles.
