Museums - Lincoln, NE, US
Founded in 1992 by "Speedy" Bill and Joyce Smith, the Speedway Motors Museum of American Speed is dedicated to preserving, interpreting and displaying physical items significant in racing and automotive history. The museum is a federally recognized 501 (c) (3) private foundation and currently encompasses more than 150,000 sq. ft. over three levels. The vast collection resulted from the Smiths' personal involvement in racing and hot rodding for more than six decades, and their lifelong passion for collecting and preserving historic automotive artifacts.Millions of hours were spent, as Bill put it, "turning over rocks" and chasing countless leads to assemble a collection of this magnitude. As a result, museum visitors will witness a stunning array of history-making cars, engines, parts, toys, and memorabilia. You'll see countless rare and one-of-a-kind items, all presented in beautiful displays and dioramas that will make you feel like you've taken a step back into the past!Hours of Operation: May - September (Summer Hours)Monday-Friday: 12:00 PM - 4:30 PM (Guided Tour Begins at 1:00 PM)Saturday: 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM (No Guided Tour)October - April (Winter Hours)Monday's & Friday's: 12:00 PM - 4:30 PM (Guided Tour Begins at 1:00 PM)Saturday: 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM (No Guided Tours)*Closed All Major Holidays*Events and private tours available for booking.
