    If you like old cars and machines, this is the place for you. Lot of hand on and ride on toys for children. The staff was extremely informative and engaging with visitors. When visiting New London it is a must see museum.

    What an absolute gem. We were given a tour by Barbara and Ben on a Thursday afternoon. I have never seen one place with so much rich history, Americana, and antique cars. We had the time of our lives here! We spent around 2 hours with these folks and they were nice enough to give us a ride around town in a model-A and a model-T Ford. I’ll be coming back in the future! Thank you for the most amazing afternoon.

    This is a must see museum. The owner is very polite and the items are spread throughout several buildings on the property. This museum has several old Model-A and Model-T cars, old license plates, gas and oil memorabilia, and a hodge podge of other antique items. It was great to see all this history preserved in one location. I would definitely visit again!

    If you love cars and old machinery this place is good for the young and old. My wife and I got a ride on a model A and a model T I got short ride on a fire engine. The folks there are super nice and knowledgeable.

    Great fun learning experience. Pretty much everything you could imagine relating to life in the past, not that long ago for me. Lovely Ford model T and earlier collection. Sad to hear of the passing of the old man who had a story behind everything there. Well worth a visit.

    If I could give this place 10 stars, I would! Ben took us on a personal tour of the little shops and showed us how many of the old machines worked. A highlight was that he took us out for a small drive in two different vehicles! What a treat! It's such a gem- thank you to all the staff who made this such a wonderful experience!

    This museum is fantastic! Our guide was delightful, and we were allowed to explore the collection on our own as well. Besides the antique Ford cars, there were vintage toys, bikes, carriages, household items, tools, signs, firetrucks, and much much more. We even had a ride in a 1929 Ford woody. Admission is free, but you can leave a donation.

    If you like antique Fords and 19th century New England ingenuity, you will enjoy your time at the museum. Kids can ride the peddle cars, step into an early jail cell and make steamed powered whistlea blow. The museum offers tours. While the muaeum is free, donations are recomended to preserve it and all that hoisea for future generations.

    Wow, this place is awesome! Antique cars, toys, machinery and tools. Take a ride in an antique car, and the kids can play with the antique pedal cars and toys. It's a very hands on place. Ben showed us around, and was a pleasure to talk with. I'll be back!

    If there is a better automobile museum in NH, please tell me where it is! Really great collection of pre-Model T Fords (limited production Fords from the first decade of the last century). Beyond the cars, Bill Kidder had an exceptional talent for identifying and saving historically interesting every-day items. Attend the special events on various Saturdays in June - early October, including conventions of old Fords, old tractors, and hit-and-miss stationary engines. Be sure to get into the farther back buildings, where 19th century items are saved. The exhibits are very high quality exhibits, but so much of it is hands on. Bring the kids to ride the antique toys. Just a very fun, informal museum - a fabulous collection displayed in a small-town way.

    Excellent museum of sorts. So much to see and do. Free tour. A vast collection of a family Ford dealership. You'd have to come back several times to see everything. The tour guide is well schooled and knowledgeable about everything. A must see.
