Museum Of British Road Transport

This museum contains many Rootes models. Unfortunately I didn't take enough film, and left without photos of many cars, including Field Marshal Montgomery's Humber. See also Museum Of British Road Transport Home Page

Sunbeam Mk III

Sunbeam Mk III Drophead - the museum is quite crowded so it is sometimes difficult to get a clear shot of the cars. Behind the Sunbeam you can the back of a Hillman Aero Minx.
