Early Ford v8 Foundation Museum

Preserving Ford Motor History

The Early Ford V-8 Foundation Museum exists to collect, preserve, exhibit and interpret the history and heritage of the products manufactured by the Ford Motor Company between 1932 and 1953. We seek to capture and display the character, culture, and charisma of America's love affair with open roads and the Fabulous Fords that helped conquer them. The museum is an educational and research model for all to enjoy.

"Flatheads Forever"....Preserving 1932 -1953 Ford V-8 History!

The Early Ford V-8 Museum

The Early Ford V-8 Museum is a one-of-a-kind museum dedicated to 1932- 1953 Ford History. It consists of three major sections: an Early Ford Speed exhibit, Industrial Engine, Farming displays, and a 1940s Ford Service Garage. The Frank Corey Gallery houses many of our 1932-53 vehicles, and Floyd Motors depicts a 1936 Ford Dealership.
