Did anyone check out the car museum at Fair Park? I was hoping to go there but it appears to have been closed about a year ago. Heck, they hardly mentioned it opening much less when it closed. Did anyone ever get a chance to check it out?

I don't think it was around more than 3 years. I saw ONE little display at the fair one year, but they would always clear out the museum to put in a bunch of stupid vendors, so you had to go when the fair was over once they put all the cars back in the building. They did a lousy job of promoting it. I had heard several cars from the Pate collection had made it there. One another note, I went my the train museum on Sunday and the Big Boy is still there and outside the grounds on its own spur getting ready to make the move to Frisco. Its all pretty and shiny now. All of the rolling stock from the museum is already moved out there and this is the last piece. It will be towed there, but they keep cancelling the trip.

I met a guy that had an old hard top convertible that was on loan to them, and wanted to make the trip out to check out the cars. Never did make it out, and sounds like they closed it. He said it was kinda odd how they had it set up and open, guess that was thier demise."If I asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses." - Henry Ford
