stormeaston Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 That's when we were planning on going, Friday morning, the only trouble is that we waited too long to rent a car and there all gone. We're in Vegas right now and I've tried all over to rent a car for the weekend and no luck. I think we might rent a cycle for Friday and get to Shelby with that.

And lastly, how long does it take? Thanks again. If you are there by 10:30am you'll be taken on the tour of the museum and main building. No one is left behind. The tour is roughly 30 to 45 minutes long. Just depends on how large the tour group is and how many questions are asked. If you miss the tour you still can visit the museum and gift shop until 4:00pm. You may also see cars being loaded/un-loaded in the parking lot. And don't forget the Shelby Cafe. They honestly have great food at very reasonable prices. Steve PS- Don't forget to wave at the Shelby Live Cam when you are in the museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stormeaston Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Thanks guys for all the calls offering to give us a ride to Shelby Friday morning, we have found a way to get there.

See you guys this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
