Beside being in the UK and costing ~$100 to tour here's the Peter Windsor tour of Williams F1 museum with Jonathon Williams (Frank's son).
A few interesting things about the video's.
- I didn't know Peter Windsor worked at Williams F1 in marketing/sponsorship
- Jonathon's memory of each individual's chassis history is facinating, esspecially that J. Villenueve's main race car in 1997 has won more races than any other Williams chassis.
- Jonathon also has a great memory for all the drivers and some amusing stories involving races and tactics.
- It took Frank and Patrick Head 12 years to get two working V6 turbo F1 motor's from Honda so they could run the FW11's at Goodwood in 1999.
- And last but not the least the amount of interesting factoids and information in this hour long tour is well worth your if your a Williams fan.
- my favorite fact is that FW11's design lead Enrique Scalabroni does not even drive road cars even though he designed F1 cars! He always hires a taxi!

$100 to tour the museum? Do you get a free t-shirt at the end or does it lead to a gift shop?
I'll watch this later.

^ 60 UK pounds or ~$100, which is ridiculous to me. I could see $30, maybe even 40 but not 100.
There is a gift shop
