A beloved museum in Wisconsin closed its doors for the last time over Labor Day weekend after nearly three decades in operation, but fans now have the opportunity to take a piece of it home with them.

Or drive one home.

Elmer’s Auto and Toy Museum in Fountain City was founded by Elmer Duellman in the 1990s and run by him until his death at 79 in 2019. The entire collection will now be auctioned the week of Sept. 17.

Elmer Duellman's casket was carried to his funeral on the back of the museum's 1932 Ford pickup.

Just goes to show that you can't take it with you but someone is going to have a payday.
