People really need to visit the LeMay Car Museum and come to terms with the necessity of sophisticated manufacturing. If not then we're all at risk to lose the freedoms for which the United States is revered. More »

I saw the sausage grinders at the LeMay house once- they are pretty amazing, too. Some are in a wire-mesh chicken coop type arrangement, which is really quite appropriate. More »

ya, i spent all those years getting a history degree too...but it doesn't make it ok to steal tax dollars when there just was not the money from this community or from local and state lawmakers. the real point though is, like many other things "leaders" want to make this place better, more seattle like, less tacoma like, better for techy people, bad for current residents, good for theater and art and museums, bad for eating healthcare and warm winters - car tunnel does not help anyone?

To reitterate a year-old comment- someday, you should wander on down to Le May's Marymount facility in Parkland and see some of what's there. I believe that this collection does indeed constitute a national treasure, and I rather look forward to the "Fall 2011" opening of LeMay's Tacoma operations. More »

i wish everyone would take another look at this because it is really this type of stunt that goofs tacoma...in the grand scheme of social interaction it is extremely difficult to engineer a populations' demographic. "leaders" in tacoma have paid consultants millions over the decades to tell them WE are "under incomed" well, building a church of dukes of hazzard does not help...even if it were a museum of national treasures WE would still need "leaders" that guide our populations' needs forward instead of being bummed at who we are.

I was walking near 26th & Proctor recently and I was surprised to find a shop that sells model building kits that included some of the same cars I built when I was a kid. Brands like Revell were on a shelf near the front window and the kits looked like they were O.E.M.* N.O.S.* original equipment manufacturer new old stock If the new museum doesn't include a campus model kit shop, who wants to start a new business in the Dome District?
