MOVE Museum of Vehicle Evolution
Overview
MOVE, the Museum of Vehicle Evolution, is a transport museum on the Goulburn Valley Highway at Kialla, on the southern edge of Shepparton in Victoria. It grew out of the Shepparton Motor Museum and Collectibles, which opened in 2011 with about 50 to 60 cars, and the Andreadis family gave the first buildings and later the land.
The car floor changes all the time, because almost all of the cars are on loan. Feature displays focus on one marque, style, era or country, and many of the cars have never been shown in public before. The Kenworth Dealer Truck Pavilion holds around fifty trucks, buses and other commercial vehicles and tells the stories of the Goulburn Valley's transport families, and the collection includes a 1923 Mack, the oldest known surviving Mack in Australia.
Beyond the vehicles there are motorbikes, a classic bus and coach pavilion raised largely through community fundraising, the Farren bicycle collection, the Loel Thomson costume collection, gramophones and radios, and The Furphy Museum.
