Museums in Australia
Sydney Bus Museum
The Sydney Bus Museum is a not-for-profit organisation first established in 1986 at Tempe, and now permanently based within the Old Tramshed at Leichhardt in Sydney's inner-west. We are a working museum made up of over 250 members who together help to preserve a rare, and invaluable collection of historic buses dating from the 1920s to 1980s.
The Carl Lindner Collection of Classic Jaguars
A visit to the Barossa Valley is simply not complete without seeing this stunning collection of classic Jaguar motor vehicles. The outstanding private collection represents a near 40 year passion for the famous marque with a stunning array of both original and immaculately restored motor vehicles. Collected by Barossa identity Carl Lindner, and since his passing in October 2017 now owned by his widow Peg, the collection exceeds 30 vehicles and is presented in two beautifully finished showrooms.
The Henry Royce Foundation, Queensland Branch
Australia is a vast country with population centres thousands of kilometres apart in different States. As the Archives of the Sir Henry Royce Foundation are housed in Melbourne, Victoria, it was decided that Sub-Archives be established in Queensland. In Brisbane, items with special Queensland provenance will be housed along with any copies of Archival material from Melbourne. Details of all Queensland catalogued items are forwarded to the Archivist for the central database of the SHRF.
The Motorist - Vintage Motoring Museum
The motto of the collection is “Committed to the preservation, maintenance and enjoyment of heritage motoring”. As such the majority of the vehicles are used on the road regularly whether it be for hire, rallies, displays or just “daily transport”. The centerpiece of the collection is the world's only 1925 Studebaker limousine with polished brass body
The Nuthouse Collection
This private collection of the Hayes family includes Australia, American and British classic cars

Trafalgar Holden Museum
Established in October 2014 by a local car / Holden enthusiast, most collectors would adjust their ambitions to suit what they can squeeze in their garage, Neil did not let the space factor get in the way of his collection. Instead, he bought an old factory (which happens to be Trafalgar’s old butter factory from the 1930’s era) to store and grow his much loved collection.
Up The Creek Garage
Robert and Edith Burton's family owned museum was opened in 2017. It features their collection of vintage cars
