Ever dream of driving that special vintage car that you’ve seen at a national car show? Lane Motor Museum can make your dream come true on September 25 at our First Annual Rally for The Lane.

Rally for the Lane is a one-day vintage car fan extravaganza. The museum has selected 31 cars from its collection that participants will be able purchase the right to drive on the rally. This will be a gimmick rally, which means there are only questions to answer along the way. (If you just want to enjoy the drive, you do not have to answer the questions). The directions will be very clear as we do not want participants getting lost. The day will start at the museum with some car familiarization time. The rally will start at 9:30 a.m. and basically head along the Cumberland River to Ashland City for a picnic lunch at Riverbluff Park overlooking the Cumberland River.

After lunch everyone will enjoy a brief ride in the Amphicar on the Cumberland River (weather permitting). The Rally will resume and tour through rural Cheatham County with some beautiful and hilly two-lane roads. Arriving back at the museum around 5:00 p.m., you will have completed about 120 miles of rally driving. The museum will then open the basement for a private tour; an award presentation will follow.

Rally for The Lane is a fundraising benefit for Lane Motor Museum in Nashville, TN. Lane Motor Museum opened in October 2003 and, since then, has grown from a collection of 80 cars to nearly 330. As a 501(c)3 non-profit, the museum relies on the generosity of the private community to help offset the many costs of operating a 135,000 square foot facility, the maintenance of over 330 vehicles and several ongoing restoration projects! While running a car museum is fun, it doesn't come cheap. The electric bill alone totals more than $50,000 a year!

Your participation in the Rally will not only be a fun and exciting day for you but a great way to help support the mission of Lane Motor Museum: to collect, preserve and document automotive history for the enrichment of future generations.
