Thousands of cars drive by on this road to Yosemite every day but only a few notice a little sign in Escalon, pointing to an "Antique Car Museum."

If you follow the sign and turn off the main road, it is only half a block to a place called the "Horseless Carriage Garage, Don & Lillian Ritchey, proprietors."

This place is not advertised anywhere and doesn't have a website which really is a shame since it is a real treasure trove for every antique car lover. It has everything from a Stanley Steamer to a 1917 or 1918 Caddy with numerous things in between like a couple of old Harley's and this 1917 Ford Model T with a really funny wind shield.
