A museum of vintage and classic cars has been planned in Bangalore. Karnataka Vintage and Classic Car Club has acquired a four-acre plot at Rajarajeshwari Nagar for the museum with a floor space of two lakh square feet accommodate over 300 cars. Disclosing this to The Hindu, club secretary Ravi Prakash said a trust has been established to realise the club’s ambitious project estimated to cost Rs. 50 crore.
Dr. Ravi Prakash, who has a wide collection of vintage and classic cars, said architects from Germany and England were consulted for the museum design. “It is going to be the biggest museum in the world. There are some museums abroad that display 200 cars, but the one planned in Bangalore will have space for 300 cars,” he said.
