The old car manufacturer Studebaker has a great auto museum in South Bend Indiana. There are three floors of antique cars, wagons, buggies and military items, made by Studebaker. Never heard of Studebaker? The were in business as a blacksmith shop in 1852. They built wagons and buggies before they built cars. The collection features the Barouche that President Abraham Lincoln used the night of his assassination, President Grant’s Brewster Landau, President McKinley’s Studebaker Phaeton, and President Benjamin Harrision’s Studebaker Brougham. If you have an interest in antique automobiles, you need to see this collection. It's almost all Studebaker. Studebaker closed in March 1966.

I took plenty of photos and here are just a few of them. My dad talked a lot about Studebaker cars when I was a kid. He would have made a good tour guide in the museum. Now I know what he was talking about.
