The Henry Ford has tons of cool stuff. A running Apple 1. The working Wright Experience replica of the Wright Flyer that was flown at Kitty Hawk for the 100th anniversary. So much amazing
They have not only the actual Wright Brothers Cycle Shop building and their house from 7 Hawthorn St. Dayton (Ford moved the buildings), but Ford hired their mechanic Charlie Taylor to set everything up as it was in Dayton. Taylor re-acquired the original tools; not the same kind, the exact serial numbers. When you walk outside, there's even a Dayton manhole cover on the ground.
