Featured Illinois Route 66 Scenic Byway Member
Dwight, IL
The Crazy 80's Auto Museum is a wonderful addition to the attractions along Route 66 in Dwight, Illinois. The museum is free, but donations are encouraged. Owners David & Rick have been collecting cars from the 80s - most of which were overlooked at the time they hit the showroom floor, but now collectively give visitors a taste of what is was like to live in that era.
