A Rural Iowa Car Museum Built Like a Hollywood Set
David Tracy visits Okoboji Classic Cars in West Okoboji, Iowa—a 28‑month, 400‑gallon paint job by Toby Shine and his wife Sylvia that turns a scrap‑metal magnate’s collection into a Hollywood‑style replica of Spencer/Arnolds Park. The 'Man Cave' museum features a drive‑in, fake downtown, and meticulously crafted sets alongside classic cars; Toby’s passing eight months earlier is noted, with Sylvia continuing tours and preserving a surprising Midwest treasure built in a rural setting.
