The museum was busy throughout the day, with people trying to get one last look at their favourite Holden cars.
The owners, Mark Galea and Tony Galea (unrelated), made the announcement in January after no buyers came forward to purchase it from them.
There will be an auction for some of the cars and memorabilia stored in the museum. Those interested can find out more at www.burnsandcoauction.com.au
