J & R Vintage Auto Museum
3650 NM Hwy 528
(Albuquerque) Rio Rancho, NM 87144
(505) 867-2881
Located 15 minutes northwest of Albuquerque, this place is a MUST for fans of pre-war (pre-1945)
American cars and/or the Great Race. This private museum has over 50 restored vintages cars and trucks - best of all, it
features 10 that have run the Great Race. The "jewel" is a 1917 Mormon that won the race in 1995. I drooled so
much while visiting the EPA had to be called in to clean up. . . . BEWARE - The gift shop is awesome! Featured

Unser Racing Museum

Albuquerque, NM 87107

Wow! Four generations of Unsers are honored here. The museum features uniforms, trophies,
about a dozen or so cars - from Pike's Peak winners to Indy winners. There is a video that chronicals the family's
involvement in racing. VERY IMPRESSIVE! Make time to see it. Featured HotSpot

This is a small, but great museum! They have a couple of Elvis' cars on display, a real 428 Cobra autographed by Carrol
Shelby and several other cars as well as antique automobile stuff.

Route 66 Auto Museum
2866 Will Rogers Ave (Old Rt. 66)
Santa Rosa, NM 88435
(575) 472-1966
This is EXACTLY the kinda place I had in mind
when I started this list. Who knew that on the family vacation from Texas to the Grand Canyon, we would run into this
cool little mon-n-pop museum. Its $5 to get in and well worth it. There are about 20+ cars on display, some for
sale. Its mostly '50s and '60s era iron with a good dose of hot rod. Nice gift shop. Nice people.
