Whiteman Park Motor Museum receives much needed funding

The museum has needed a new building alongside its current headquarters at Whiteman Park to display more vehicles and other items of interest.

The 2000sqm building, in addition to display space, will also include an old-style garage, office and kitchen for volunteers, an education facility for school groups and a reference library.

Many of the permanent displays will be enhanced, including an RAC display of vehicles and memorabilia and the Governor’s Rolls-Royce.

Planning Minister Donna Faragher presented a cheque from Lotterywest to Motor Museum chairman Kelvin Ferris last Friday.
