It has been many years since the museum was there. It seems to me that there were more than 2 cars. It is now a Lowe's.

Eddie Evans I believe. Stopped in one afternoon (10 years ago, or so) with young son & nephew. Eddie insisted that they get in the cars in the museum & enjoy...I was a nervous wreck.
