Vintage Grill & Car Museum founder Tom Moncrief, an oilman from Fort Worth, was inspired to create a combination car museum and restaurant after visiting one in Sydney, Australia, while on his honeymoon in 1988.[4][7][8] After originally planning to open a 1950s-themed museum in Fort Worth, Moncrief took a suggestion to open it instead in an old service station, purchasing one in Weatherford for the purpose.[7][8]
The buildings that comprise the current museum were built around 1919; by 1921, when the Bankhead Highway arrived in Weatherford, The lot included a 50-car garage, an auto sales and office building, gas pumps, and a repair shop. Before being repurposed as a car museum and restaurant, the property's former gas station also served as Weatherford's Greyhoundbus station.[9]
