Aussie Muscle Car Museum


Taken from the Main Page:


"Welcome to the Aussie Muscle Car Museum Website
Australia's first dedicated musclecar museum opened late March 2005. For now, take a virtual tour through history as you view road-going examples of the legendary race cars that made put Australia on the world motorsport map. You're in for an exciting journey as you watch the evolution of the Australian musclecar from its inception in the early '60s to the present day.
Creator and collection owner Jeff Bloom has painstakingly combed the entire country, in the process forming the most diverse and largest privately owned collection of Aussie musclecars ever assembled in this country, deliberately choosing unusual colours and options to faithfully recreate the automotive fashion of the day.Whilst keeping very close to their original specification, occasionally Jeff breaks protocol with some non-original 'improvements' (for instance, he has a thing about Falcon hardtops needing very large wheels, particularly rear ones). Please forgive this small indiscretion, where possible all original parts are kept to be one day reunited.
Regardless, arranged in year/model formation together, the cars look breathtaking. This website cannot even come close to recreating the spectacle, but we've done our best through the miracle of technology. Do yourself a favour. Organise with your car club or association to get in and see the collection in the metal and do a guided tour. It's an event not to be missed.
Our website will be regularly updated with new photos, historical information and links to other sites."
