A blog about a new website for people with old cars

Feature update: Museum/Places directory

leave a comment »

One of the joys of restoring an old car, even if you’re doing it slowly (perhaps especially if), is the incremental nature of it. Rarely do we have all the bits we need to start and finish a job on the same day, and things have a habit of taking longer than you at first think.

So it is with the Autopendium Classic Car Resources Directory. We were always going to add museums and other places to the Clubs, Websites, Books and Suppliers Directories — just took us a little longer than planned. Well, it’s done now, and the Autopendium Classic Car Museum Directory is now live, and already has nearly 150 entries, ranging from the small Cotswold Motor Museum & Toy Collection to the huge Petersen Museum in LA, as well as some great specialist ones such as the Bruce Weiner Microcar Museum.

You can filter by country, so can see just the classic car museums in the UK, for example, or car museums inĀ  Germany. We’ve also got sections for race tracks and historical locations, so if you know of any good ones, please do add them. Similarly, if we’ve forgotten any of your favourite museums.

Finally, we’ve tied all this in to Google Maps, so with one click of the mouse you can see the location on a map easy as you like:
