The Tampa Bay Automobile Museum features a unique collection of vintage vehicles, including pioneering front wheel drive and rear engine cars from the 1920's and 1930's. Each vehicle was chosen based on the engineering achievements that made it an important part of the evolution of the automobile, setting the standards for the engineering of automobiles today. Visitors enjoy a provocative blend of art and science in 12,000 square feet of gallery space.
The history of the automobile is one of the greatest showcases of man’s
creativity and imagination. The collection of the Tampa Bay Automobile
Museum in the Tampa Bay area of the west central coast of Florida is
perhaps one of the most succinct statements of that premise to be seen
anywhere. Housed in the museum galleries are many of the finest early
approaches to aerodynamic shapes and packaging, front wheel drive and
rear engine-rear drive engineering, unibody construction, pioneering
uses of materials like cast aluminum, pressed steel and more.
The collection additionally presents the concept
and history of shared technology and trade in the early twentieth
century through the presence of the Tracta
front drive system on a variety of makes, Daimler’s sleeve valve engine
driving a variety of European and American cars and the American Budd
Corporation’s patented pressed steel methods appearing on both sides of
the Atlantic.
If you are a Vintage Car buff, this will be a thrill of a lifetime...

WHO: In the 1830’s, the United States was attempting to enforce its policy of Indian removal.The Seminoles were facing the loss of their homeland and their freedom.After broken treaties and failed peace parleys, the Seminoles took up arms against removal.The US Government thought they could quickly overpower the Seminoles and waged the fiercest of all wars ever waged between the US Government and Native Peoples.They burned settlements and captured, killed and scattered many Seminole families.This seven year war cost more than the American Revolution and involved 52,000 soldiers fighting against less than 2,000 warriors.The Seminoles fought with courage and determination and had a unique knowledge of the land.Although many Seminoles were killed or removed to present-day Oklahoma, they were never defeated, and to this day their 3500 descendants are known as “The Unconquered” Seminole Tribe of Florida.
