August 2, 2007 Fort Worth, Texas One of the worlds premier auto toy collections is now available for viewing by the public both in person and online. The new DFW Elite Toy Museum is located at the DFW Elite Auto Rental facility, 5960 Eden, Haltom City, Texas, near Fort Worth.  Featuring extremely rare toy cars and one-off scale models from around the world, the museum represents part of the personal collection of Ron Sturgeon, Texas entrepreneur, author, investor, and owner of DFW Elite Auto Rental.com.


Ive been collecting these vintage automotive toys for over 20 years, says Sturgeon.  I am so excited to share what we have with fellow auto enthusiasts and toy lovers.  Im proud of our collection and even prouder to be bringing it to the public free of charge in our new DFW Elite Toy Museum.

According to toy museum Curator Rodney Ross, the toy collection numbers 2,682 items, and new items and artifacts are added regularly.  Our collection consists mostly of model cars and appeals primarily to adult auto enthusiasts, says Ross.


Weve put a lot of effort into creating a fun virtual experience for auto enthusiasts, modelers and collectors at our new online museum, says Ron Sturgeon.  Located at DFWEliteToyMuseum.com, the website includes hundreds of pictures, detailed descriptions and the inside story on how many of the rare toys came to be in the museum. 


Major categories of cars on display include German driving school models, tin cars, construction equipment toys, World War II models, pedal and carousel cars, race cars, powered large-scale toys and much more.


The museum is open Monday Friday, 9:00 am 5:00 pm, and Saturday, 9:00 am 4:00 pm.  The museums location inside the showroom of DFW Elite Auto Rental.com means that visitors can also take a peak at some full-sized toys.  Well have some exotic and luxury cars parked nearby for those who come to visit, says Sturgeon. There is quite a crossover and many of the museum visitors enjoy getting a picture or two with our exotic rental cars. The most popular are our Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Gallardo and newly arrived Aston Martin V-8 Vantage Convertible.
