So apparently some uber Star Trek geek purchased The Original Series' Galileo shuttlecraft at auction.  He then spent the next year or so restoring it, and it's now going to have a permanent home at Space Center Houston.  (Link.)  Thank you, Mr. Schneider!

Very cool. I wonder if they redid the inside? Would love to crawl around that.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
