The AustralianMotorlife Museum

Volunteer-run since the early 1990s, this not-for-profit museum on Darkes Road holds far more than cars. The Paul Butler Collection anchors the floor, surrounded by gramophones, typewriters, scales, and telephones that trace how technology reshaped late-1800s Australia. The Jack Brabham Members Room can be hired for functions. Motorcycles, bicycles, an NRMA Heritage display — and a veranda for a packed lunch.
