New Hours at Lions Automobilia Foundation and Museum
One of my favorite museums in SoCal is making some changes. I’ll let them tell you about it.
From the Lions Automobilia Foundation and Museum:
Lions Automobilia Foundation Announces Expanded Schedule
Rancho Dominguez, CA (March 30, 2023) - Beginning in April, the Lions Automobilia Foundation and Museum will expand the days and hours that it will be open to the public. Beginning April 1, 2023, the Museum and Car Collection will be open at 9:00 AM until 2:00 PM each Wednesday and Saturday to accommodate the large interest in visiting the vast facility.
According to Museum Director Lana Chrisman, “We have seen a tremendous increase in those fans of the automobile culture who want to visit and explore our beautiful collection of hot rods, movie cars, race cars, muscle cars, Lions memorabilia and especially the recreation of the iconic Lions Dragstrip Starting Line. So, after the tremendous event held last weekend for Tri-Five Celebration of Chevy’s, the Board of Directors decided to open on Wednesdays and earlier at 9:00 AM.”
Starting in April, the museum admission fee is $20 for adults, with Seniors, Military and Youth (ages 4-17) at $15, children under 4 are free. The extensive car collection also includes movie car replicas such as the Batmobile, Back to the Future’s DeLorean, the General Lee, Thelma and Louise’s Cadillac, TV’s KITT Trans Am and the Bullitt Mustang among others.
The Museum’s huge collection of Willy’s coupes and sedans is unrivaled, most having been restored in-house in the museum shops. On loan to the Museum, currently, is the Big John Mazmanian candy apple 1941 Willys and the metallic blue Stone Woods and Cook “Swindler 2”, two iconic Southern California racers.
Board Chairman and Founder Rick Lorenzen enthusiastically invites all fans of our Car Culture to the Lions Automobilia Foundation and Museum with our new hours. In support of local car clubs, upcoming events are April 15th with the Chariots Car Club and the Roar of Lions on June 17th including the Outlaw Gassers of Southern California. Stop by early for a donut and coffee at Rick’s Cafe!

Lions Automobilia is more than a Museum.
