In-Person Event: Price Museum of Speed - A Collection of Automobile History

Price Museum of Speed features a rare display of the greatest representations of early racing history. Many of these rare vintage race cars either won or placed well in numerous renowned events such as the Grand Prix, Le Mans, Morris Park, Briarcliff Cup, Daytona Beach among others. Also in the collection are other marquee automobiles representing different periods of history including a 1904 Peerless Green Dragon, the 1907 Renault Vanderbilt Racer, the 1915 Weightman Stutz, the 1929 Bugatti 35B Racer. Many of the early racers in the Price Museum of Speed collection were capable of speeds exceeding 100 mph, for extended endurance periods. The capstone of the Price Museum of Speed collection is the famous Ab Jenkins 1938 Mormon Meteor III, considered by sports writers and collectors to be the 4th most important racing machine in the world. The Meteor III was Augie Duesenberg's automotive capstone, being the last car ever built by him. The Mission of the Price Museum of Speed Foundation is to display unique vintage race cars and memorabilia, and provide an automobile research library for future generations of car enthusiasts to enjoy. Come join us for a guided tour of the Price Museum of Speed by the museum's curator.
