Secrets of Vintage Trailer & Car Enthusiasts Revealed
Our guest this week on the @WestofTulsa Show is David Neel, Executive Director of the Murphy Auto Museum in Oxnard, California. He took over the museum from the man who founded it, Dr. Murphy. David talks about stepping down from that role and is making an offer to our listeners and viewers. Whoever wants his museum can have it. He'll give it to you. However, it's more complicated than that and he explains why.
David talks in detail about what you'll see at the museum, everything from mid-century vintage trailers to model trains, an impressive diecast collection and a slot car track that will blow your mind. The museum also has a section dedicated to Indianapolis 500 Champion and former CEO of STP, Andy Granatelli.
David also talks about his love for anything vintage, especially vintage trailers from teardrops to Airstreams, a one of a kind Holt trailer house and something called The Big Ugly. We'll let him explain the name, where it came from and how it impacts traffic on the 405 Freeway in Los Angeles. He describes how he found 'his tribe' in vintage camper rallies and why everyone should see Lucy and Desi in the movie, The long, long trailer. David also has a passion for station wagons. He has a Checker Marathon, a Studebaker Wagonaire which tows his matching trailer boat.
Our show is briefly interrupted by construction workers next door to our studio. Something that Pat McAfee probably doesn't have to deal with.
We also talk about the Murphy Auto Museum and the Mullin Auto Museum closing within months of each other. What's going on?
Finally, David, a professed Jeep snob, also talks about his connection to Tulsa and the State of Oklahoma where his family is from before heading west during the dust bowl days.
