A mythical collection assembled by a legendary collector has resided in Philadelphia for more than 30 years. In the Fall of 2008 Dr .Frederick Simeone opened the doors to his new museum which now allows the public access to this extraordinary presentation of historic sports racing cars. The Simeone Foundation Automotive Museum, located near Philadelphia's International Airport, features sports racing cars from the early 1900's through 1975.
