fun experience

Didn't spend much time at Toad Hall; too COLD; late December. Neat cars that you don't see anymore. Didn't see any cats. Definitely worth the drive if you're on Cape Cod. I'd go again if I get to the Cape.

Hey, glad you enjoyed and come again. Cats were inside as too cold. But come in the Summer when we turn the heat on :-)

Never was a Museum, just a fun private collection. More fun up till 2002 when all were sorta on the road. We keep 'em running and someday some other folks will drive them off.

Now for something entirely different!! Bill has a fascinating collection of iconic sports cars from an era when young men (and women) aspired to tear up the local track and streets with horse power to spare. As several reviews point out, this is a personal...More

I know they are 'aging' but we keep them in running order. I'll eventually sell them all as my 'retirement.' But try to keep then streetable for the next owner. They are drivers not show cars. Wish they were but no money :-(
