History [ edit ]
Vintage Grill & Car Museum founder Tom Moncrief, an oilman from Fort Worth, was made to create a combination car museum and restaurant after visiting one in Sydney , Australia , while on his honeymoon in 1988.[4] [7] [8] [7] [8]
The current museum's buildings were built around 1919; by 1921, when the Bankhead Highway arrived in Weatherford, the lot included a 50-car garage, an auto sales and office building, gas pumps, and a repair shop. Before being repurposed as a car museum and restaurant, the property's former gas station also served as Weatherford's Greyhound bus station .[9]
The establishment opened to the public in early 2015.[4]
