  The Historical, Vintage, and Classical Cars Museum is located in Kuwait's Shuwaikh Industrial Area, near the intersection of road 80 and road 55.
  
  ## History and profile
  
  The museum was opened in October 2020 (2 years ago) (2020-10). It consists of two buildings and an outside display area:
  
  * one building houses the permanent exhibition of 30 restored important cars;
  * another building contains a traffic parkour where children can practice their driving skills in electric cars;
  * outside of both buildings there is a collection of less important cars in various conditions, including a "barn find" Ford Model T.
  
  Additional cars are displayed on loan in other museums in Kuwait, e.g. the Bait al-Othman museum in Hawally.
  
  The main collection can be grouped into 4 parts:
  
  * the display of former state limousines of Kuwait
  * state limousines from other countries or from Royal households
  * a collection of 3 Aston Martins related to James Bond movies
  * other important cars owned by the museum or by private collectors (including 2 Minervas from 1904 and 1924)
  
  The museum is closed on Fridays and open on all other days 9:00 - 12:00 in the morning and 5:00 - 8:00 in the evening.
