California Automobile Museum has a collection of over 150 classic cars, race cars, muscle cars and early models displayed throughout 72,000 square feet of museum space. The mission of the California Automobile Museum is to preserve, exhibit, and teach the story of the automobile and its influence on our lives.


 The California Automobile Museum was the first automobile museum in the west to be established in perpetuity.  The first auto to be donated to the California Automobile Museum was a restored 1938 Buick sedan, a gift from John Joyce, president of the Golden One Credit Union, which is still on display at the museum. 


Most of the 150 vehicles currently on display are on loan from private exhibitors. The cars on display represent a cross-section of cars driven in California over the last 120 years.  Approximately 40% of the vehicles are owned by the California Vehicle Foundation. The rest are on loan from private exhibitors, and display terms vary from vehicle to vehicle, so the display is a constantly changing exhibit of rolling stock to better tell the story of the development of the automobile and its effect on our lives. The museum offers tours daily.
