The Museum of Automobiles on Petit Jean Mountain in rural Conway County, Arkansas, features more than fifty antique automobiles dating from 1904 to 1967. The only two known extant Climber Cars, made in Little Rock, are on display at the museum.
The Museum of Automobiles was established by Winthrop Rockefeller to contain his auto collection and encourage tourism on Petit Jean Mountain.
