History on wheels museum

Today I visited the history on wheels museum just up the street from me in Eton Wick, Berkshire
I didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised with what was there

Lots of military cars & trucks many which have appeared in famous movies such as battle of Britain, where eagles dare, kellys heroes & comedys such as Allo Allo, Opel blitz, Humber staff cars, Morris commercials, crossley alf tracks, horsch staff car, tatra, Mercedes 170's a really good mixture

From the bike side, a 16h with a DR manequin, some German machines, a flat twin French ww2 outfit, RE fleas, James ml, a weblike with its original drop container from Arnhem. For the bicycle fans, too many to mention, British , italian, German, American, never saw as many

I bought a new unissued motorcycle log book dated 1944 which tony had as a duplicate

If you have not visited & you live within a bike ride, i recommend you try it r if you are near London on of it's open weekends, book a visit

Best regards

It's Tony Oliver's place. I've been there lots of times.
Tony's collection revolves around a film props business. But he is a self confessed collectormaniac!
Last time I was there we collected a Kettonkrad that a friend had bought. Ron

That's the one Ron, he even has the milk float from eastenders :-D

Your description of him sounds accurate, but without people like him, we wouldn't have anything to see these days

I'm happy with the unissued log book I got from him too

As I said, worth a vist if in the Windsor / eton area
