Reviews
"For someone like me who loves rusty junk, this is heaven. Only thing is, it's not junk. Might be rusty, but the incredible value of almost every single thing here is what makes this worth seeing. There were young folks here getting a personal tour by the owner while we were here. Well worth the measley ten bucks to get in. The owner is almost eighty years old if my math is correct, and acts twenty years younger. Highly recommend!!"
"Massive collection of Ford Model T, Model A and other vehicles. Mostly T&A, though. Some with excellent paint and some with beautiful patina. Way worth the $10!"
"We really enjoyed this place. Tons of old cars. Model A and Model T plus others. Some restored others not. A 1930 model A car house motorhome. Hundreds of cars. Antiques and farm implements add to the collection. If you like old stuff.... I highly recommend the stop. $10 per person entry."
"Be prepared to walk in the outdoors for most of your time here. A very large collection of cars. Mostly Model A Fords. There are many other autos as well. I especially enjoyed the old RV fully outfitted and equipped for the road. If you older autos and machinery don't miss this place. There's washing machines, high wheel bicycles, outboard motors, sand on and on. Mr Cloud will be on hand to answer any questions you may have. Good times."
"Okay, this is NOT a museum. It is a private collection of antique vehicles, farm equipment and miscellaneous housewares. There is virtually no signage or descriptions of anything except on a few of the cars. Keeping that in mind, this is a wonderful place to stop if you're in the Yuma area. The Cloud is located on Imperial County road S23 less than a mile north of the Imperial Date farm. The drive is very nice, taking you past a lot of farms and date orchards. Regarding the "museum" some of the vehicles are in sad shape and are sitting on blocks outside. The nice examples are located in several small barns."
