The Drive Home II, a 12-day, 2,150 mile winter road rally from Boston to Detroit for the North American International Auto Show, will feature ACM’s 1957 Chevrolet Nomad, 1961 Chrysler 300G and 1966 Ford Mustang, all of which completed the first “The Drive Home” in late 2015/early 2016, from the Museum’s headquarters in Tacoma, Washington, to Detroit.

To celebrate its 100th anniversary, J.D. Rockefeller's 1917 Crane Simplex will also make appearances on the trip. Scroll down to read more about this car in the Featured Vehicle section.
