The Manjusha car museum stands as a vestige to the unending passion Dr. Heggade nurtures for cars. His love for automobiles has taken the shape of a scrupulously maintained car museum at Dharmasthala, which has on display more than 150 ancient and magnificent cars. Devotees who arrive to Dharmasthala can view the display over a small entry fee of Rs.10.
The cars are maintained in running condition till date. A garage affiliated to the museum also functions by redesigning and renovating old cars.
Every car at Manjusha Car Museum has an interesting story about how it became a part of the museum. A 1903 Renault holds a place of pride in the museum, along with a custom built 1949 Daimler which belonged to the Maharajah of Mysore and a 1929 Studebaker which was used by Mahatma Gandhi.
