"THE TREASURED WHEELS MUSEUM"The only museum of Vintage vehicles in the northeast




ABOUT



The Treasured Wheels Museum of ASSAM features vintage cars, motorcycles, bicycles, musical instruments, electrical appliances, clocks, and watches from the early part of the 20th century.
Very few museums display as many Classic Cars as this Museum does. In fact, this museum is unique in having Full Classics as its single focus.
The owner has donated their vintage vehicles to the museum for preservation. The museum will not only help people learn about the history of transport in the Northeast but also acknowledge those who have helped build this museum collection. The vehicles are registered in name of the original owners. Perhaps you’ve heard that the treasured wheels have a terrific museum but, unless you’ve been there, you probably don’t know much about it.
