Recognized as one of America’s finest car museums, NATMUS welcomes thousands of visitors from all parts of the world each year. Declared a National Historic Landmark in 2005, these original Auburn Automobile factory buildings represent over 130 years of transportation manufacturing.
Now home to hundreds of historic cars, trucks, and unique vehicles like the GM Futurliner #10, we welcome you to experience our beautiful museum in Auburn, IN.
Currently, the Futurliner is on display at NATMUS.
The Futurliner does get to show off at various locations throughout the year.
Make sure you plan ahead so you don’t miss the Futurliner when it is off-location.

NATMUS is always updating the museum with new and fun attractions. From an Indy 500 Pace Car to the NASCAR winning 1966 Dodge Charger, we have something for everyone. Check out all our attractions and plan your trip today!
Proudly listed on The National Historic Vehicle Register, this Futurliner calls NATMUS home. Generously donated to us in 1990s, we took on this massive restoration project to preserve its history.
Originally build for the General Motors Parade of Progress in the 1930s and 1940s, this Futurliner is one of 12 that were made.
Standing at 33ft long, 8ft wide, and over 11ft tall, this beautiful giant is something for your eyes to behold.
