AMERICA’S CAR COLLECTION, located in Winnemucca, NV is owned by former
Winemucca resident Ralph V. Whitworth. The collection comprises a world-class array
of automobiles from the 50’s, 60’s and early 70’s. The cars were chosen to reflect
America’s explosive golden age of experimentation and innovation with automotive
speed, power and styling. A future planned museum facility will be home to a rotating
display of among the most historically significant American race, custom and show cars.
Already on the property is the 6,600-square foot climate-controlled, state-of-the-art,
restoration facility, the “Flying A Garage.” The Flying A Garage houses the latest
equipment and facilities, making it capable of hosting “concours” quality restoration
workmanship.
The city of Winnemucca, NV is located 180 miles or 2.5 hours east of Reno, Nevada on
1-80 and is approximately 240 miles west of the Bonneville Salt Flats. The Flying A
Garage is located on the East end of Winnemucca at 500 E. Winnemucca Blvd.
The America’s Car Collection site development will take place in three stages. Stage one,
the Flying A Garage restoration facility was completed in 2006. Stage two includes
construction of a storage facility to house the cars in the private collection which was
started in the fall of 2008. Stage three will include the America’s Car Collection Museum facility.
Winnemucca will soon be home to many of America’s coolest, fastest, and in some cases
most outrageous, Hot Rods, Customs, Show Rods, Drag, Bonneville, NASCAR,
Celebrity and Muscle cars.
