Can you guess what’s turning heads in the Car Gallery this month?

We’re putting the spotlight on a true American classic, a stunning 𝟭𝟵𝟲𝟰 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝘃𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗥𝗮𝘆, generously shared with the Elliott Museum by local car enthusiast 𝗥𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲.

With its sleek lines, brilliant blue finish, gleaming chrome, and unmistakable Sting Ray styling, this Corvette is a beautiful reminder of why the 1960s were such an exciting time in American automotive history.

The 𝟭𝟵𝟲𝟰 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲 was part of the legendary second-generation Sting Ray, a design that pushed the Corvette into a new era of style, performance, and innovation.

𝗟𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝘀? 𝗬𝗼𝘂’𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗻𝗲!

Come visit the 𝗘𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝘁𝘁 𝗠𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘂𝗺 and get an up-close look at Randy Prange’s gorgeous 1964 Corvette while it’s featured in our Car Gallery.

Thank you to everyone who attended Dr. Anthony Atwood’s sold out presentation on the History of World War II in Florida yesterday afternoon at the Elliott Museum.

This fascinating presentation helped shed light on the important role that Florida played during WWII.

A special thank you to Dr. Anthony Atwood, the Executive Director of the Miami-Dade Military Museum and Memorial for sharing your expertise with our guests on this topic.
