In Southern California, don't miss the free Nethercutt collection, a little-known gem in Sylmar. There are two halves, one side doesn't require a reservation but you should reserve to see both sides. There's also a restored Pullman car.

I believe the Peterson museum is closed.

I do! I do, dorit!
These aren't in Illinois but pretty close. In Indiana.
The Auburn/Cord/Duesenberg Museum in Auburn, IN. It's too bad you aren't coming around the Labor Day weekend because they have an auction of these vehicles, which sell for BIG $$$! www.automobilemuseum.org
In South Bend - close to the University of Notre Dame, there is the Studebaker National Museum. www.studebakermuseum.org
And, of course, there is the Hall of Fame - Indianapolis Speedway Museum - at the Brickyard - in Speedway, IN (just outside of Indianapolis). http://www.indianapolismotorspeedway...e-track/museum

And this one in Tacoma, WA, which is not on your itinerary but might be of interest.
