Shepparton Motor Museum

Shepparton, Victoria

Shepparton Motor Museum is on the Goulburn Valley Highway just outside Shepparton, near the NSW border. It's a relatively new establishment and that shows up in the quality of the purpose-built building and amenities. It does also mean, though, that it lacks some of the patina and character of the more established museums. The museum's collection is largely one of locally-owned classic vehicles that the Museum acts as caretaker for. Therefore access is quite strictly controlled and you can't get closer access to the exhibits even under supervision. It's a bit of a shame as there are some items located to the rear of some displays that you just can't photograph well. As you can see from my photos, the vehicles on display represent a wide cross-section of the classic and vintage spectrum with trucks, cars, bikes, circuit racers and automobilia.
