Over 50 Unusual and Vintage Scooters

Gathered from around the globe, our exhibit of antique scooters includes fully restored designs dating back to 1916. We're home to the world's first production scooter, created in New York City and called the Autoped. Only eight are known to exist today, one of which is on display in the Smithsonian Museum.

You may recognize another well-known scooter, the Cezeta 502, from the "American Restoration" TV show. You'll also see unique scooters you never knew existed, like the 1946 Doodle Bug built in Iowa after World War II. Have fun touring our collection of colorful scooters ranging from futuristic, space-age styles to European designs.
