New Exhibit Opening – American Small Cars: Bantam & Crosley
January 7, 2025 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
Join us on January 7, 2025, for the opening of our newest temporary exhibit, American Small Cars: Bantam & Crosley.
Four years before the Corvette, the first American, and even smaller sports car was on the road. The Crosley Hot Shot appeared in 1949, brought to you by the same company that in 1951 produced possibly the smallest farm vehicle ever, the Farm- O-Road. In 1935, Roy Evans purchased the American Austin, and changed the name to American Bantam. This car manufacturer was known for making small cars with a top speed of 50 MPH and averaging 40 MPG. A curated exhibition of these tiny cars showcases the creativity and engineering sophistication of two pioneers in small car design – Crosley and American Bantam.
The exhibit will be on display on January 7 – May 4, 2025.
