Welcome to one of Southern California’s premier destinations for car enthusiasts where museum visitors experience a wide range of vehicles from years gone by.
The museum features a rotating collection of 130 classic, antique and vintage automobiles on display. The Museum is committed to the preservation and maintenance of these cherished age-old automobiles for generations to come.
The Automobile Driving Museum’s mission is to collect, preserve, exhibit and ride in historic vehicles.
On Sundays, the public is invited to ride with docent drivers in their dream vehicle on public streets.
The Zimmerman Automobile Driving Museum was founded in 2001 by Earl Rubenstein and Stanley Zimmerman, long-time automobile collectors and friends. They had dreamed about a museum that allowed the public to actually sit in and experience riding in a collectible vehicle. Their mission was to give the public an opportunity to experience classic and special interest automobiles and preserve and maintain orphan vehicles no longer being manufactured such as Studebaker, Packard, Stutz and Nash AMC.
The museum occupies over an acre of land and has 40,000 square feet for automobile display, storage, repair, and restoration.
The museum has large meeting rooms and party spaces available for rent.
It is open Wednesday through Sunday 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
