I ran out of time, and just grabbed these two shots when they announced they were closing, and I still had the entire upper floor to look at... the Mullin Museum closes at 3 in the afternoon... be sure to get there when they open so you have as much time as possible.. they have so much to look at, and if you are as slow and methodical at drooling over cool old cars as I am, you need the whole day.
