Amazing museum experience
I've been to the REOlds museum a few times. I've always liked older cars, especially Oldsmobiles. My 1st Car was a 1965 Olds Dynamic 88 sedan. You can see classic Oldsmobiles and learn about the Olds history. See many different significant Olds cars, and REO's. If you want a ride in an actual 1910's car, make plans on being in Lansing on the Tourist in your Town event at the museum. The museum often has rare Olds items from time to time. Like the prototype Olds 425 hemi v8 engine. Too bad that motor never went into production. Would have made the 442 a serious contender against Mopars hemi cars.

Fun to learn about Oldsmobiles
This is a small, unairconditioned building, so if it's hot outside, it is a bit uncomfortable. R.E. Olds was ahead of his time with his ideas on making cars. There are some neat autos here, but you mostly learn about Olds and his ideas for making a good car.
