On Saturday 13th May 1911 a Model T Ford, driven by Henry Alexander of Edinburgh, reached the summit of Ben Nevis.  That event was commemorated almost exactly 100 years later, on 18th May 2011, when  a 1911 Model T was carried to the summit by a party of over 60 volunteers, which included one of our Trustees.  That Model T, which has been kindly loaned by Neil Tuckett of the Model T Ford Register of Great Britain,  is now on display in the Museum and will remain here for a year.

The museum is currently home to two motorbikes on loan from the Scottish Six Day Trials Association. It is expected that the motorbikes will remain in the museum over the summer season.  Some photographs and memorabilia are also on display.
