Wonderful Woodies of Years Gone By On display: Exquisite 1941 Hudson Super Six, 1914 Model T Ford, 1947 Nash Suburban, 1951 English Ford Pilot and more!

The museum will also open a new pedal car exhibit in April. These close replicas of automobiles of the early 1900's were built of expensive materials and propelled by pedal mechanisms. Pedal cars were initially for children of wealthy parents but after World War II, pedal cars became accessible to more children for whom they were dream toys. Today, private collectors and museums take the greater interest in pedal cars and provide beautiful restorations. The pedal cars in this exhibit, restored to Concours level, owned by Loren Hulber include:

• 1927 Packard Roadster
• 1935 Steelcraft Pontiac
• 1937 Garton Lincoln Zephyr
• 1937 Steelcraft Plymouth
• 1938 Gendron Hudson
• 1938 Steelcraft Supercharger
• 1941 Steelcraft Chrysler
• 1941 Garton Woodie Station Wagon & Trailer
• 1949 Murray Torpedo

The style was influenced by America's preoccupation with space exploration and penchant for low, long and sleek automobiles with abundant chrome. The talented designers of these show cars often became household names. America On Wheels celebrates these timeless beauties and the artisans who created them.
