Gold lamé suit

And his Gibson guitar. The last time we were at Graceland this was all in the racquetball court and there were just a few suits. Now it's all in this huge building.

Elvis' influence

They had an entire building dedicated to the influence of Elvis. It had people in movies, TV and music talking about how Elvis influenced them. Here's Dwayne Johnson dressed in his personal Elvis costume.

Trike

It's so Scooby-Doo! I love it! See the orange vehicle in the back? It's a snowmobile. Elvis had it altered so it could be driven without snow.

So many vehicles!

All kinds of different motorcycles, scooters, gokarts, golf carts, snowmobiles, anything you can think of, he probably had it – even a tractor!

Cool buggy

This was in the "other vehicle" part of the museum. We left the cars now. I liked this because it looked like something The Munsters might drive.

Interior

I included this photo not to read about the car but because it was the best way to see that he also put his initials and his logo, "TCB," on the inside of the car as well. This was a very personalized car!

1966 Mongrel T

This car was built by the legendary "kustom" car designer George Barris in 1966. It was used in the movie "Easy Come, Easy Go" – it features surfboards as seatbacks, shag upholstery, a "Go-Go" buton on the dashboard, a meat thermometer temperature gauge and orange porch lamps. After the movie it was repurposed as the Jokermobile on the "Batman" TV series.

HUGE!

This car is so long! I think it's even longer than a pickup truck. I can't imagine driving it. It's longer than two of my cars end-to-end. I don't think I noticed the gold extras when we were there. The gold Cadillac on the grill, the gold rims and the gold Cadillac logo. I'm sure that was expensive!

1956 Cadillac ElDorado
