Welcome to one of the finest collections of antique, vintage and hot rod cars and trucks in Canada South.  Come see the oldest internal combustion engine car made in Canada in 1893 and it still runs.  You will see both original and fully restored hallmark vehicles from the 19th and 20th century, from horse drawn wagons to a Dodge Viper.  You will see a full representation of the vehicles that were made right here in Southwestern Ontario throughout the 20th century.  You will see race cars, hot rods, cabriolets, open touring, early brass era, roadsters, convertibles, hard tops, taxi cabs, pick up trucks, tractors, wagons, motorcycles, bicycles, penny farthings, railroad, and military vehicles of all sorts.

We offer guided tours and a fascinating insight on what came before as we peer through all the decades of the motor industry.
