The Iowa 80 Trucking Museum was a dream of Iowa 80 Truckstop founder, Bill Moon. Bill had a passion for collecting antique trucks and other trucking memorabilia. We are pleased to be able to share this collection with the general public. Every truck has a story to tell and can provide a unique glimpse back in time. Many rare and one-of-a-kind trucks are on display. View short films about trucking history in our REO theater; a great way to learn even more about the trucks of yesteryear. Come and visit us, we'd love to have you.
We are passionate about preserving trucking history and we need your help! We rely on the generous support of our fellow truck enthusiasts to fund exhibits and truck restoration projects as well as help us maintain operations. Please consider a donation to the Iowa 80 Trucking Museum. Your donation will allow us to continue to grow and share trucking’s history with the general public. Thank you in advance for your support.
