Museum offering close-up look at power under hoods of cars

DEARBORN (AP) - Henry Ford Museum is offering visitors a close-up look at the power that's usually hidden under the hoods of cars in its automotive collection.

"Engines Exposed" runs through Feb. 28 at the museum in Dearborn. More than 50 vehicles at the museum's Driving America exhibit will have their hoods open, including the 1896 Ford Quadricycle, the 1932 Ford V8, the 1937 Cord 812 and the 1962 Ford Mustang I.

During "Engines Exposed," visitors may stop at Driving America's Car Court for presentations about The Henry Ford's car collection. Topics change daily and may include broad looks at the cars and detailed talks about certain vehicles. Details are posted online.

The museum is part of The Henry Ford, a history attraction that includes Greenfield Village.
