There must be quite a few and I'd like to compile a listing so I can make a page or 5 with a map reference.
Keith,
There is one near Cowra, NSW, about 4 klicks out of town. It has a bit of everything, but quite a good military display with a feature on the Japanese POW camp which was nearby. From memory on the last visit, there were Blitz, Dodge, Stude, Centurion, Ferret, etc.

Another that you did not mention, is of course the national truck museum at Alice Springs, NT, there are mv's restored and on display and a good number of potential projects laying in the yard, inc. a Bedford QL. This is the home of the Diamond T road train built by Kurt Johansen, which has now been restored.

Richard
