That academic mission was bolstered in 2011 by the acquisition of the Karl Ludvigsen Library.

1963 CHEVROLET CORVETTE GRAND SPORT COUPE About the 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport Coupe “What’s in that damn dinosaur? It went by me like I was stopped.” A.J. Foyt, driving their latest 500 horsepower prototype at Sebring, was not the first Ford racer to be stunned by the sheer acceleration of a Grand Sport.. Intended as a series of 125, the “Lightweight,” at a thousand pounds less than the production Sting Ray, was 1970 PORSCHE 914/6 GT About the 1970 Porsche 914/6 GT. Had it been any other year, the Le Mans competition debut of the 914/6 GT would have been better noticed. Sixth overall and first in GT was a superb maiden effort on the Sarthe circuit, especially for a twoliter car. 1958 VANWALL FORMULA 1 About the 1958 Vanwall Formula 1. The Vanwall, the first British racer to win a Formula 1 world championship, reflected Guy Anthony Vandervell’s obsession to beat “those bloody red cars”. And Vandervell knew Italian cars well, having fielded modified Ferrari Grand Prix racers called “Thinwall” (after the bearings hemanufactured
1966 FORD GT40 MKI
Dearborn returned in 1966 with eight factory MK IIs and five independently entered GT40s. Crushed by the Ford “steamroller,” Ferrari’s P-3s gave best to a one-two-three Ford MK II victory. To prove it wasn’t just luck, Ford entered yet another new car in 1967,the MK IV.
1969 PORSCHE 908 LH
About the 1969 Porsche 908 LH. Despite using engines no larger than 2.2 liters, underdog Porsche lost the World Championship of Makes by one point in 1967. So the factory decided to even the odds. The FIA’s new three-liter prototype (Group 6) and five-liter sports car (Group 4) regulations adopted for 1968 presented the opportunity. 1950 CADILLAC SERIES 61 LE MANS "PETIT PATAUD" Le Mans, of course, is a sports car race.

Automobiles are complex, technological objects that deteriorate over time. At Revs Institute, preservation keeps the cars safe in a stable display environment to minimize further damage or deterioration. The museum controls temperature, humidity, and light. Thanks to these efforts, future generations can understand the detailed history of thevehicles.
Conservation
At Revs Institute, conservation mitigates further deterioration by specialized care and treatment to ensure the car is safely stored, displayed, and operated without further risk of damage. It is better for the cars to be exercised on a regular basis than to let them sit, but this requires very careful maintenance by our team.Restoration
Restoration is permanent change to a car. At Revs Institute, we are careful to not alter the historical integrity of an artifact. Cars severely damaged through use or neglect need restoration, but we never make it better than it was after original construction. The goal is to present a car as it looked and functioned as accurately as possible. ABOUT REVS INSTITUTE Revs Institute® is a 501(c)(3), not-for-profit, working museum and library. It is regarded as one of the greatest car museums and sources of automobile knowledge in the world.Read More
