Live the Dream

The Hendricks Collection, which is on display at the Gateway Colorado Automobile Museum, acquired the one-of-a-kind 1954 Oldsmobile F-88 dream car designed by Harley Earl. Not only does this car have the distinction of being a part of American automotive auction history, it’s considered one of America’s finest examples of rolling art to emerge from the post-war era. The collection features other classics such as the 1906 Cadillac Model H Coupe, 1913 Pierce Arrow, 1936 Supercharged Auburn, 1939 Packard “Hollywood” Darrin, 1941 Lincoln V-12 Zephyr, plus classics from the 1950s as well as stunning muscle cars and customs. As you explore, you’ll discover how an obsession with “getting there” faster, smoother and in high style helped shape the American way of life.
