The National Automobile Museum in Reno is among the best of its kind in the world. The National Automobile Museum features cars from the dawn of the automobile age through the present day. The National Automobile Museum is also called The Harrah Collection because most of the vehicles on display are from late casino mogul William F. Harrah.
