Antique Auto Museum at Hershey

AACA MUSEUM

 

Located in Hershey, the site of the annual AACA Eastern Fall Meet, this museum tells the story of our antique vehicle hobby and the club.  Its collection features a wide range of vehicles from motorcycles and cars to buses and trucks!  Your visit here will allow you to appreciate the breadth of the hobby and those who are dedicated to it. At the time of our visit there will be a special Muscle Car Collection from the 1960's - 1970's. Lunch will be served here.

 

The Antique Auto Museum at Hershey displays vintage automobiles in unique scenes and settings! Visitors can stroll through eight decades in time while traveling from New York to San Francisco. It’s a trip down memory lane as you recall the cars your grandparents or parents drove as well as those from your early driving days.

1920s Scene in ProgressThe Museum is also happy to announce that we are in the process of enhancing our 1920's scene. This area will be adorned with hand painted panoramic views of downtown Hershey in the 1920's. These paintings will take you back to a simpler time, where you can almost hear the sounds of the early city. This artwork was commissioned by the Museum with artist Dave Naydock, a resident of Pottsville, PA. The area will be available for viewing in early October, 2009.

The Cammack Gallery features several special exhibitions each year. Changing exhibitions focus on specific manufacturers, vehicle types, and historical themes.

Continue your journey on the Museum’s Lower Level with a tour of the Museum of Bus Transportation—the largest collection of buses on display under one roof in the United States! A dozen buses and an illustrated timeline trace the history of bus transportation—from the days of crank starts and wicker seats to full-sized motor coaches complete with uniformed hostesses.

Flo's DinerThe Lower Level also houses a restored Valentine Diner, a Photo Area where you can have your picture taken behind the wheel of a vintage car, and a selection of vehicles from the Museum’s permanent collection.
