The Murphy Auto Museum was founded in 2000 by retired Ventura, California neurosurgeon, Dr. Daniel Murphy. Originally the Museum was a place to house his large Packard collection. Soon, others inquired about keeping their cars with his and the Museum was born. In 2005, it was moved to Statham Blvd. in Oxnard.
The Grand Re-Opening event featured a car show, refreshments, live entertainment and an art show in the Fireball Gallery. The fun was served up hot at this very special VIP night at The Murphy!
In 2014, the museum’s ownership and administration were transferred to Ventura County business owner and car enthusiast, David Neel. His love of automobiles and his commitment to the Museum’s mission statement will ensure its existence into perpetuity.
In 2019, the Museum moved to a new location at 1930 Eastman Ave. Oxnard, California.
The cars rotate on a continuous basis, keeping the collection fresh and interesting.
