[Shotimes] Lowrider in museum

[Donald Mallinson]

I don't know George's situatin, but every museum is 
different.  Some take newer cars, some take newer cars of 
some reputation (ultra high miles, rare etc.).  Some museums 
want unusual cars.  I know that Bill Staib (original founder 
of the SHO Registry) has asked about putting his '89 in a 
museum and they are interested, but not for a few more years.

some museums insist that items are given to them, others 
will take them on a "long" basis.

Some put on special displays and then return the cars.

So if you are interested in getting your own car in one, 
then search out museums in your area and talk to them.
