Volo Auto Museum

Volo Auto Museum

The Volo Auto Museum is an automobile museum in the Chicago suburb of Volo, Illinois, USA. It is part of a larger antique mall.

Unique to other auto museums is that customers can also purchase most of the vehicles that are on display in four large buildings. A military-centric section has been fairly recently added. Cars on display are mostly from the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s.

The museum also features cars (some original and many replicas) from famous television shows and movies. These include:

*KITT from Knight Rider
*Bluesmobile from The Blues Brothers
*police car from RoboCop III
*The General Lee from Dukes of Hazzard (television show)
*Replica DeLorean from Back to the Future
*Replica DRAG-U-LA from The Munsters
*Christine from Christine
*Cars from The Fast and the Furious
*Replica van from Scooby Doo
*Replica Dan Curry-built Batmobile of TV's Batman.
*Moped used by Peter Parker in Spiderman.

Some of the so-called "star cars" are available for purchase as well.
