Juan Manuel Fangio Car Racing Museum, Belcarce, Argentina    ★★★★★

www.welcomeargentina.com/balcarce/fangio-car-racing-museum.html

This is a fantastic museum of racing cars and memorabilia housed in the home town of the five time World Champion.  It’s a wonderful collection of cars ranging from the type of hot-rod American cars Fangio raced in Argentina in the 30’s and 40’s right up to his Grand Prix cars from Ferrari, Maserati and Mercedes-Benz which took him to five titles in seven years from 1951-57.  If you are ever in Argentina try to get to Balcarce, a rural city 400 kms south of Buenos Aires, so that you can see this collection.  Outstanding!
