Overview
The Don Laughlin’s Classic Car Museum is a hidden gem within a lively resort setting, where polished chrome, sweeping fenders, and vintage craftsmanship transport visitors through decades of automotive history. Spread across multiple exhibit spaces, the museum features more than 70 to 80 meticulously preserved vehicles, from early twentieth-century models to powerful muscle cars and rare specialty automobiles. The collection is complemented by displays of antique gaming machines and memorabilia, blending the spirit of classic Americana with the region’s casino heritage.
Founded by Don Laughlin, a visionary entrepreneur and passionate car collector, the museum reflects both personal enthusiasm and a broader appreciation for innovation in transportation. Many of the vehicles on display come from private collections around the world and rotate regularly, ensuring a fresh experience with each visit. Set against views of the Colorado River from its upper-level galleries, the museum offers more than a static exhibit—it is a dynamic tribute to engineering, design, and the enduring cultural fascination with the open road.
