Ames Automotive Foundation is proud to present over ninety cars on display, spanning 100 years of automotive history. Most of these cars are completely original, including tires and paint, and typically have fewer than 10,000 miles on the odometer. The rest are high quality restorations of rare “one of” cars. When Steve Ames started this collection he concentrated on these rare “one of” cars until he found the car pictured above. This 1966 Pontiac GTO has just 4,210 miles on it. The body mount bushings still have the colored talc from the Pontiac assembly plant since the car was never driven in the rain or snow. Steve realized how rare it is to find such a stunning, original example of a car of its age and shifted his focus to ultra low-mileage, untouched, original vehicles. Realizing these vehicles needed to be preserved for future generations, Steve and his wife Joan created the Ames Automotive Foundation in 2016 to allow future generations to have the opportunity to learn how the workers could assemble these cars in a matter of hours on a moving assembly line. This Foundation will allow these extraordinary vehicles to live on for years to come. We invite you to come see these wonderful examples of American ingenuity and hear their stories.
