Title: America's Packard Museum
Post by: stokester on October 10, 2018, 04:55:25 PM

I had a chance to visit a great car museum in Dayton OH on my way to Wisconsin this summer.  It's housed in an original Packard dealership and has a great collection of autos and memorabilia.  The hours are limited but well worth the visit.

There is also a display of the V-12 engines used in the WWII PT boats.  Three of these engines generating 1200 and later 1800 horsepower.
