Inside This Week’s Melbourne Auction Market – 52 Upcoming Sales inc Classic Cars, Collectables & Fine Art

This is the seventh and eighth instalment from the renowned Chapman Gippsland collection, and it’s packed with the kind of stuff that doesn’t surface often. The lot list leans hard into authentic petroliana: porcelain service station signs, old oil company tins, and cast-iron fuel pumps. There’s also a solid run of motorcycle memorabilia, including British and Australian club pennants and competition plates from the 1940s and 50s.

For the hands-on restorer, the collection includes boxes of NOS gaskets, piston rings, and bearings for early Ford and Holden engines, plus a selection of vintage magnetos and carburettors. A few standout lots are a complete set of rare Brock Holden dealer promotional items and a framed original poster from the 1955 Australian Grand Prix. Given it’s a timed online auction closing on 29 June 2026, bidding is already open. Check the condition notes carefully, as some items show their age, but for collectors chasing genuine period gear, this is a deep well.

This is a proper enthusiast’s clearance from Burns and Co, delivered from Bayswater. The Park collection spans decades of petrolhead obsession, with standout lots like a restored 1970 Ford XY Falcon GT in factory-correct paint and a numbers-matching 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray with the 327 V8. Motorcycle fans get a 1972 Norton Commando 750 Roadster and a 1966 Triumph Bonneville T120R.

Beyond the vehicles, the memorabilia is deep. Expect original dealership signage, period-correct toolkits, service manuals, and a run of diecast models. The auction closes 29 June 2026. Buyers should factor in transport from Bayswater to their door.

Burns and Co have pulled together a serious haul for collectors. The lot list includes pre-war and post-war classic cars, restored and project motorcycles, and a deep run of period-correct spare parts. Petroliana collectors will find original enamel signs, fuel pumps, and branded oil tins from the golden age of motoring.

The auction also features significant collections of automotive literature, including workshop manuals, brochures, and race programs. If you are after a specific model part or a piece of dealer signage, this is the kind of catalogue where you dig deep. The close date is June 29, so set your calendar and review the lots early. Burns and Co run a tight ship on condition reports, so get in touch if you need a closer look at anything.

This three-part auction is a treasure trove for anyone restoring or collecting classic British and European machinery. Part 1 features a solid selection of vintage and classic cars, including Jaguar XJ sedans, a Rover P6, and several early Minis. The motorcycle lots are the real draw, with everything from Triumph Bonnevilles and BSAs to rare Italian and Japanese models like Moto Guzzi and Honda CB series.

Part 2 shifts to memorabilia and automobilia, with stacks of factory workshop manuals, brochures, and period signage. Part 3 rounds out the sale with loose parts, engines, gearboxes, and rolling chassis. Buyers should factor in collection from Bayswater, Sydney, as items are not shipped. With 1,860 lots closing on June 17, this is a deep catalogue worth digging through over several days.

Burns and Co have put together a solid lineup for this June sale, drawing from their specialty in classic and collectable vehicles. Beyond the headline muscle cars, the list includes several motorcycles, from vintage Triumphs to late-model Harley-Davidsons. Memorabilia lots cover signage, petrol pumps, and original parts, which should appeal to restorers.

Buyers should check the condition reports carefully, as some cars are presented as projects rather than turnkey drivers. The auction closes on 9 June 2026, and bidding is online only. If you are after a genuine Australian muscle car or a rare import, this catalogue has depth worth a close look.

This sale covers a broad sweep of decorative arts, from silverware and porcelain to oil paintings and clocks. Standout lots include a pair of Regency rosewood card tables and a 19th century French ormolu mantel clock. Jewellery buyers will find Victorian brooches, gold chains, and a sapphire and diamond pendant.

The furniture section leans heavily on antique and mid-century styles, with several cedar chests, walnut dining tables, and a set of Chippendale-style chairs. Artworks range from colonial landscapes to modern prints. Check the condition reports if you are bidding on anything fragile, as some lots show age-related wear. The auction closes on 29 June 2026, so register and inspect in advance.

The Bostik pallet is the headline act here. Eight hundred cartridges of general purpose silicone is serious volume for any tradie or hardware reseller. Also worth a look are the Simson ISR 70-03 elastic adhesive and sealant cartridges, available in both 600ml and 290ml sizes, in white. That stuff is a go-to for panel bonding and structural glazing.

For the home workshop crowd, the P&N by Sutton Tools drill bit sets cover both masonry and HSS, so you get a solid all-rounder kit. With 100 lots on offer, expect a mix of bulk consumables and individual tool packs. Check the full lot list before bidding to suss out the best value.

This is an individual lot from Grays Online’s regular caravan auction series. The listing covers a 2018 Cabana Caravan, so you are bidding on a specific, pre-owned unit rather than a mixed lot. Check the listing for exact model details, condition report, and any service history before you bid.

The auction is based in Dandenong South. Given it is a rolling auction, the close time is listed as TBC, so you need to monitor the listing for the final countdown. Inspections are usually available, so arrange a viewing to check for wear, tyre condition, and any water damage before committing.

This is a near-new caravan from Highclere, a builder known for solid off-road capable rigs. The Dynasty Classic 19’6 is a popular layout, typically offering a rear island bed, full ensuite, and a front club lounge. Being a 2025 model, it will have the latest fit-out and compliance.

As a single lot from Grays ongoing caravan listings, it pays to inspect the specific build sheet and options. Check for extras like solar capacity, battery setup, and air-conditioning, as these add significant value on a van this size. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the listing for the countdown.

This is a well-specced off-road camper from Mars Campers, designed for serious touring. The Spirit/Endurance model includes a queen-size inner spring mattress, external gas bayonet, and a 95-litre water tank. It also has a slide-out kitchen with a two-burner stove and sink, plus plenty of storage for extended trips.

Buyers should check the condition report closely. As a single lot in a rolling auction, you’ll need to monitor the closing time yourself. Given the 2022 build, it’s still near-new but expect some wear from previous use. No registration is included, so factor in towing compliance for your state.

This Coromal Silhouette 420 is a lightweight, easy-tow option from the early 2000s. The pop-top roof keeps the height manageable for storage and towing, while the full kitchen and dinette setup inside offer genuine off-grid capability.

Buyers should check the condition of the canvas and the pop-top mechanism, as these are common wear points on this vintage. The rolling auction format means the price climbs gradually, so you can watch it and jump in when it suits your budget. No reserve listed, so it will sell to the highest bidder whenever bidding closes.

This is a chance to grab a current-model Highclere Royal without the new-yard wait. These vans are built in Queensland and known for their solid construction and off-grid capability. Expect a full kitchen, bathroom, and a proper island bed, plus solar and battery setup for independent travel.

The rolling auction format means the price climbs until it hits the reserve or the listing ends. Check the Grays site for the exact close time, as it can shift. If you’re in the market for a premium van that’s still under factory warranty, this one is worth a close look.

This is a near-new camper trailer from a brand that focuses on rugged, lightweight builds for remote travel. The Space X model includes a full kitchen setup, internal 12V electrics, and a rear fold-out annexe for extra living space. Buyers should check the listing for the exact tow ball mass and tare weight, as these affect what vehicle can tow it legally.

Given it’s a Grays Online rolling auction, the closing time will extend if last-minute bids come in. No reserve price is stated, so the final cost depends entirely on demand. If you’re in the market for a turnkey off-road camper without the wait time for a new build, this is worth inspecting in person before bidding.

This is a standalone listing from Grays, not part of a multi-lot clearance. The Star Vision Adventure is built for rough tracks, with a tough chassis and off-road tyres. The hard floor pops up quickly, and the interior includes a basic kitchen setup and a double bed.

Check the photos closely for wear on the canvas and any stone chips on the body. The close date is still to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the listing for the timer to appear. If you need a weekend tourer that you can drag through the bush, this is a solid option.

Grays is running this one, and it’s a solid mix for anyone in commercial food production. The KW Automation seeder is a standout piece, complete with multiple hoppers and conveyor setup, ideal for high-volume seeding or ingredient dosing. The two conveyor check weighers from Bizerba and Ishida are both precision units for inline weight verification.

There’s also an MSD Commercial Steamer in the mix, which points to cooking or sterilising capability. The rest of the lots cover conveyor gear and packaging components. If you’re setting up or expanding a processing line, this auction has the bits you’d otherwise pay retail for. Check the full lot list before the close date is confirmed.

This is a straight-up unreserved clearance, so everything needs to go. The lot list points to a solid mix of materials: pallets of concrete bricks, general purpose cement, and a decent run of 600×600 floor tiles plus porcelain tiles in two-packs. If you’re a builder, renovator, or just after bulk supplies for a project, this one has the basics covered.

The auction closes July 16, so there’s time to inspect. No reserve means the starting bids will set the pace. Given the variety of tile quantities and cement, it’s worth checking if you can bundle lots for a single pickup. No nonsense, just a cleanout of stock from a working site.

This is a complete factory clearance aimed at fabricators looking to upgrade without paying new prices. The standout is the 2021 Prima Power Combi Genius CG1530, a machine that combines laser cutting and turret punching in one cell. It saves floor space and eliminates the need to move parts between two machines.

Supporting the heavy hitters, there is a 2008 Amada EMK3610NT turret punch head with an automatic tool changer, and a 2018 Amada HG1003ATC press brake for bending work. The 2018 Prima Power Platino Fiber 1530 rounds out the laser side with modern fibre technology for fast, clean cuts on sheet metal.

Buyers should note this is an expressions of interest process, not a timed online auction. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so it pays to get in early with your offer. Inspection of the gear is recommended before bidding, given the value of these precision machines.

This is a solid lineup for any sheet metal or precision machining outfit. The 2019 Amada resistance welder is modern gear with serious industrial capability, while the two HAAS machines are well-known workhorses in Australian jobbing shops. The ST20 lathe comes with a swarf conveyor, saving you the hassle of retrofitting one yourself.

Supporting gear includes a 2010 Richyoung DP-915AH geared head drill press, plus tooling and smaller workshop equipment. With 39 lots total, the sale is tight and focused. Check the close date on the listing, as Grays events often shift without much notice.

Based on the Transit 350E platform, this motorhome packs a diesel engine and should be ready to travel. The listing covers a single lot, so you are bidding on the whole rig, not just a part of it. Grays Online is running this as a timed auction, meaning you need to watch the close date as it gets confirmed.

Check the interior photos for the layout and condition of the living quarters. Given it is a 2014 model, look for service history on the Ford chassis and any wear on the house batteries or appliances. This is a straightforward buy for anyone after a turn-key camper without the hassle of a private sale.

This is a single-lot listing for a brand-new 2025 Highclere Caravans Dynasty Limited Edition. Highclere is known for building tough, Australian-made vans, and the Dynasty sits at the top of their range. The Limited Edition package adds alloy wheels, a full annexe, a 12-volt fridge, solar panels, and a lithium battery system for serious remote travel.

The van sleeps four and includes a full kitchen, a separate shower and toilet, and a queen-size bed. It’s set up for off-road touring with independent suspension and heavy-duty chassis. Being a current model year, it carries the full factory warranty.

Buyers should note this is a Grays Online rolling auction with no set end date. The van is located in Dandenong South for inspection. If you’re in the market for a near-new off-road caravan without the showroom wait, this is worth a close look.

This is an unreserved auction so everything goes to the highest bidder, no floor price safety nets. The Kw Automation Seeder is a specialised bit of gear for high-volume planting operations, while the Bizerba and Ishida check weighers are serious kit for any packaging line needing accurate weight control.

The MSD Commercial Steamer points to a facility set up for food preparation at scale. With 37 lots listed, buyers can pick up individual items or bundle up for a full production line. The auction is based in Devon Meadows, so factor in collection logistics if you are not local. Check the close date on the listing and get your bids in early.

This auction is a solid play for anyone kitting out a family for summer or restocking a surf shop. The wetsuit selection is the standout: there are four lots of new women’s suits with tags, along with several bulk lots of kids’ and men’s wetsuits from Ocean & Earth. Sizes are assorted, so check each lot for specifics.

The dive gear includes three pairs of Mirage black adult fins, and there is a separate bundle of Zero Swim fins in mixed men’s sizes. The accessory lots cover everything from a full Ocean & Earth surf bundle to a bulk collection of about seven pairs of flip-flops. The summer and winter accessory bundle suggests you might score some off-season gear at a discount.

With 12 lots up for grabs, you can bid on individual bundles or try for the whole lot. The close date is 13 July 2026, so you have time to inspect the listings online.

This is a mixed bag for anyone setting up a commercial kitchen or studio. The FRYMAX RC-300 fryer is a solid workhorse for fish and chip shops or cafes, while the open display fridge with multiple shelves suits a front-of-house setup. Don’t overlook the Tetlow kilns and furnaces unit — that’s specialist gear for potters or small-scale ceramic production, not something you see in every hospitality auction.

The rest of the lots cover basics: white square dinner plates, assorted kitchen utensils with white metal tools, industrial store shelving, and a bulk lot of commercial shelving. If you’re kitting out a new venue or just need backup storage and tableware, this is a chance to grab the lot without the retail mark-up. Seven lots total, all closing on July 14, 2026.

This is a straight stock reduction from a plumbing supplier, putting up over a dozen lots with hefty original retail prices. The standout is the Yukon Wall Bath Mixer 180mm, listed at RRP $356.59, alongside the Liano Wall Mixer at $486.33. For smaller jobs, the Sunstone Hand Towel Rail in Black at $79.80 RRP is a solid grab.

Buyers should note the auction closes on 18 July 2026. With no reserve listed on these individual lots, the bidding starts low. Check the condition notes on each item before jumping in, as these appear to be new old stock or display units. The Caroma Aura Basin Spout at $182.31 RRP is worth a close look if you need matching bathroomware.

This 10-lot online auction covers a decent spread of tech and household gear. The Corsair RM750e power supply and the GoWise 3000W pure sine wave inverter are solid pickups for anyone building a rig or setting up a workshop. The PNY NVIDIA Quadro T400 graphics card is a capable entry-level workstation option, while the LaCie Rugged 4TB external drive suits portable storage needs.

Also in the mix: an Aruba HPE network device, TP-Link mesh Wi-Fi extender, and an HPM 24-hour timer. Auction closes 22 July 2026. Check the lot list for condition notes before bidding.

Leonard Joel is running this Decorative Arts sale from their South Yarra rooms. The standout is a RARE GEORGE II TOASTMASTERS GLASS from around 1750, a piece that serious collectors will track. It sits alongside a German engraved armorial glass goblet and a Thuringian engraved goblet, both mid-18th century.

The bulk of the lots are English. You get a pair of George III cordial glasses, two pairs of George II wine glasses, and three George III opaque twist stemmed glasses from the 1760-1770 period. For those after quantity, there are three George II air twist stemmed wine glasses and another three mid-Georgian air twist examples.

This is Part I of the Kerry Manolas Collection, and it’s a deep dive for anyone who follows the Prancing Horse. The lot list includes period-correct Ferrari racing posters, enamel badges from the 1960s, and a run of leather-bound presentation books used by the factory sales team. For the restorers, there are NOS (new old stock) gasket sets and camshafts for 250 and 330 series cars.

Donington Auctions have grouped the memorabilia by marque, so if you’re after Maserati 3500 GT brochures or Lancia Fulvia homologation papers, they’re in there too. The classic car section is thin on actual vehicles for this event, but the paper and parts alone could fill gaps in a serious collection. Check the close date: July 13, 2026. Bid online or attend the Melbourne viewing day.

This is the Kerry Manolas Collection Part II, and it’s packed with petrolhead heritage. The lot list leans into motor racing history with signed memorabilia from drivers like Jack Brabham and Alan Jones, plus enamel signs, trophies, and original race programmes. Great Marques fans will find badges, brochures, and dealer items from Ferrari, Porsche, and Aston Martin.

Buyers should note the close date is 13 July 2026, giving you time to dig through the catalogue. Donington Auctions has a solid rep for collector car gear, so condition and provenance are likely tight. If you’re after a piece of Australian or international racing history, this is the one to watch.

This sale leans hard into the golden era of European sports cars and Australian muscle. The Mustang fastback is a genuine A-code 289 car, while the Monaro GTS is a documented 350 V8 example. The Porsche 911 Carrera is a 2.7-litre MFI car, a rare early 1970s spec that collectors chase.

Motorcycle buyers should note the Ducati 900SS, a bevel-drive twin that’s become a serious investment piece. There’s also a 1973 Norton Commando 850 Roadster and a 1967 Triumph Bonneville T120R. The collectables section mixes in automotive memorabilia, including signed motorsport posters and a set of vintage Castrol oil cans.

Bidding closes 6 July 2026. Inspection is available in Melbourne prior. If you’re after a driver-quality classic or a solid project, this catalogue has a bit of both.

This isn’t your average garage sale haul. The collection comes from one owner, so condition and provenance are consistent across the lots. Look for detailed tinplate vehicles with original paint, lithographed friction cars, and rare promotional diecasts from defunct brands. Some lots include boxed examples, which is a big plus for serious collectors.

The auction runs until July 22, so there’s time to inspect the catalogue. Donington Auctions knows this market well, and they’ve grouped similar items to avoid cross-category confusion. If you’re after a specific marque or era, check for Matchbox Superfast models and Corgi Toys with suspension and windows intact. Tin toy collectors should focus on the Japanese and German wind-ups, which often hold strong resale value. Bidding is online only, so factor in the buyer’s premium and Melbourne pickup.

This is a pure plate auction, not a car sale, so the focus is entirely on the metal. The catalogue spans everything from prestige Victorian heritage plates to modern personalised combinations. Classic car collectors often chase plates that match their vehicle’s era, and this sale has plenty of pre-1960s options.

Key lots include several single and double-digit Victorian plates, which historically hold their value better than most investments. There are also themed sets, initials, and short numeric runs that appeal to both enthusiasts and investors. Bidders should check the reserve structure: some plates carry minimum bids, others are absolute.

Donington Auctions runs this format regularly, so the process is straightforward. Online bidding is open now until the close date. If you are after a specific letter or number combination, scan the full lot list early. Plates in high-demand categories often draw competitive bidding in the final hours.

This is a bulk clearance of unclaimed goods, mostly clothing and accessories. Several lots contain multiple items in original packaging, so you can expect factory-fresh stock rather than worn hand-me-downs. Standouts include a run of premium puffer jackets, high-top trainers, and leather handbags.

The auction closes 14 July 2026. Collection is from Burwood VIC. No viewing is available, so bid based on the photos and lot descriptions. If you flip retail goods or run a market stall, this is a solid chance to grab brand-name stock without the wholesale runaround.

This is a classic unclaimed goods clearance with a broad mix of furniture, collectables, and general household items. Expect solid timber dining tables, vintage cabinets, and bedroom suites alongside smaller curios like porcelain, glassware, and old books. Retail stock and deceased estate pieces often turn up in these sales, so there is variety across price points.

Buyers need to note there is no in-person viewing. All purchases must be collected from the Highbury Road depot in Burwood VIC. Check the lot photos closely, and factor in transport costs for larger furniture items. The auction closes on 15 July, so get your bids in early to avoid missing out on the better pieces.

Abbeysauctions runs these weekly sales, and this ‘Red’ catalogue is packed with the usual mix of solid timber furniture, oddities, and everyday household items. Expect sideboards, dining chairs, and hall tables alongside smaller lots like ceramic figurines, old books, and brassware.

If you’re after something functional, there will be kitchen appliances, linens, and crockery. The deceased estate pieces often turn up unexpected items, so it pays to browse the full lot list. Inspection is usually available the day before, so you can check condition before bidding. Auction closes Friday 17 July.

This July sale from abbeysauctions covers their usual mix of antiques, curios, and deceased estate finds. The catalogue leans heavily on decorative items, with several lots of Royal Doulton and Wedgwood ceramics, plus a run of 20th-century Australian pottery. Furniture buyers will find solid timber sideboards and cedar chests, many showing honest wear rather than restoration.

Check the condition reports, especially on glass and china. The auctioneer runs regular public sales, so bidding patterns tend to be consistent. If you are after display cabinets, old books, or silverware, this is a solid mid-month pick.

Breen Auction Group has been the preferred auctioneer for Victoria Police for over 15 years, so the provenance is solid. This is a classic police auction where you’ll find a grab-bag of seized goods, from cordless drills and angle grinders to laptops, tablets, and stereo gear. There’s also general merchandise that could include everything from homewares to sporting equipment.

The key here is that lots are sold as-is, with no returns. That means a sharp eye on the photos and descriptions pays off. If you’re after workshop tools or cheap electronics to flip, this is the kind of sale where a $10 bid can net a $200 item. Just factor in pickup from Sunshine West and bring cash or card on the day.

Don’t expect a polished retail experience. Police auctions are raw, but for the bargain hunter who knows their gear, the value is often in the unknown. Get in early, inspect if you can, and bid smart.

This is a proper photographer’s estate sale, not a random box of junk. Tom Hellwege was a serious collector, so the lots span early plate cameras through to mid-20th century rangefinders and SLRs. The camera bodies alone include sought-after Leica M-series and Hasselblad 500 models, plus a stack of German and Japanese glass.

Beyond the cameras, the collection includes period flash units, tripods, developing tanks, and enlargers. There are also ephemera items like original manuals, catalogues, and signed prints. Condition will vary, but Hellwege was a known curator of his gear. If you shoot film or restore vintage photo equipment, this is the sale to watch.

Buyers should check the listing for the exact close date, as it is yet to be confirmed. Viewing details will likely be posted closer to the sale.

This is the Spencer Sandilands Collection, a deep trove of Australian printed material and maritime history assembled over decades. The strength is in the books and maps: early Australian exploration narratives, rare atlases, and hand-drawn charts from the age of sail. Collectors of Pacific voyages and Antarctic expeditions will find plenty to chase.

The lot list also leans into maritime artefacts, including ship models, navigational instruments, and logbooks. If you deal in Australian or nautical ephemera, this is a targeted sale worth watching. The close date is yet to be confirmed, so keep an eye on the listing for the countdown.

This liquidation auction focuses on professional-grade cosmetic and therapy devices, likely from a single clinic closure. The standout is the Candela Gentlemax, a well-regarded platform for hair removal and vascular lesions, paired with the CoolSlimming unit for non-invasive body contouring. Also listed is a Reimers & Janssen Photonic 500 laser therapy unit and a 2016 Asap Microplus+, giving buyers a mix of older and newer stock.

Hymans is running this as a standard timed online sale with the close date still to be confirmed. Given the specialised nature of the gear, buyers should factor in inspection and potential servicing costs. The lot list is thin on detail, so check back for condition reports or arrange a viewing if offered.

This timed auction from the Richmond specialists covers a solid cross-section of antique furniture, paintings, and decorative objects. Expect carved timber cabinets, period side tables, and gilt-framed mirrors alongside ceramic vases and porcelain figurines. The international works add variety, with European oil paintings and prints sitting next to Australian landscape scenes.

Buyers should check the condition reports before bidding, as these are older pieces with normal wear for their age. The auction runs through to July 2026, so there is time to research specific lots. Pickup and viewing details are handled through the Ainger showroom in Richmond.
