For those of you not familiar with the Gilmore Car Museum, I would recommend visiting there if you ever get the chance. It is a World class museum located near Hickory Corners Michigan north of Kalamazoo. Even if you don't have any interest in cars, this is a must see because it has cars dating all the way back to their origins and early history. This is an incredible collection of amazing vehicles.

I took this picture of an antique Kaiser

Looks very well kept and interesting.  I looked at the website and the 'by the numbers' video but didn't read anything about an entry fee.  Unless this runs purely on donations, could you divulge how much it costs to get in?

It is very well kept and extremely interesting. It consists of many buildings and takes a while to see it all so plan for at least several hours and much more if you plan on taking photos. The price is well worth it.

I've been to museums all over America including the Smithsonian and in my opinion two of the finest museums that we rarely hear about outside of their perspective areas are White Pine Village located south of Ludington and the Gilmore Car Museum. White Pine is a marvelous collection of Americana and paraphernalia of rural life styles of days gone by. It's stocked full of items used in past generation and it's hard to believe just how much history the old buildings contain. I hope folks will continue to support White Pine Village. I would rather have seen the money used for Ludington's Maritime Museum go towards expanding and supporting White Pine Village which is a truly wonderful display of Mason County's early days. I have nothing against the Maritime Museum but there are many such museums on the Great Lakes and hardly any as thoroughly original as White Pine Village.

I've been there a number of times. Great exhibits in those Red Barns. They have a number of car shows through out the summer There should be a schedule  on there web site for 2018
