An incredible collection! Many cars were privately owned and kept in great condition. Cars and coffee meets on the first Sunday of every month are usually very busy.

Pretty cool place. Im not sure if I would classify it as a museum since its kinda random and several vehicles are for sale. Maybe more of a collection. Totally worth the trip though. I really like the collection of old campers!

This place is amazing! Very minimal fee to enter, friendly and knowledgeable staff and volunteers! There so so many automobiles and detailed information to go along with them. We will definitely try to return!

A must see for fans of vintage and eclectic cars. Loved exploring the Murphy Auto Museum looking at its great collection of historical campers, model trains and cars. Brought back a lot of great memories! Adults and kids alike would enjoy the experience.

Brought my boys down form Ojai and we had a great time. The Art was really fun to see and the museum as a whole is really terrific. I am a car guy and really appreciate the genuine feel of the vehicles and displays. The collection is eclectic and authentic. Also, the HO train set-up was done really well. Highly recommended for family and for people that dont need perfect curated multi million dollar mothball cars.Thanks!

It was a great afternoon of a little automotive and gamer history. I thoroughly enjoyed this camper a farmer made in Oklahoma before he migrated to California with his family during the Dust Bowl.

This museum is pretty much a car club and model railroad club in a warehouse. Its OK for what it is, but it is not a top class museum.

Horrible! There were not 90 cars as stated. One car had an oil leak which was all over the floor. The paint jobs on some of the cars were terrible.It looked like a storage unit for people who did not want their cars. When you first walk in there are two nice cars. The rest are not museum quality.Dont waste your money! They have a lot of nerve charging $10 per person.The floors were filthy and full of black oil stains. The good reviews are from their friends.In reference to your response, than you should not call it a museum! Its a junkyard! And no, you did not wow me.

This place is pretty neat! The cars and trains are organized, with signs and labels explaining to the public the history and description of the car. I really liked the train layout inside the museum, and the employees are pretty nice (Ken is awesome!). The only downside to this place is the restrooms, which are not always comfortably clean (saw a bug trap in the corner with dead bugs on it), but given that this building has probably been here for a while, it makes sense that the restrooms would not look the nicest. Everything else in the museum is relatively neat and clean though.

This car museum is open Saturday and Sunday. The entrance is $10 per person, unless your 12 years old, or a senior citizen.They have cars from privet owners that have agreed to display their wheels there (they also have old fashion bikes, kapping trailers and pipe orans on wheels. The wheels you will see will be from the 1920s to 1970sThe parking and entrance are kept clean, just as well as the general area. The resteooms, (at least the day I went) needed some cleaning.

They say they are open until 4, stop letting you in at 3. So they let us in anyway begrudgingly, it was 3:03p. All the minature railroad owners leave at 3...so no trains were running.
