Yes it's from the 'Auburn' Collection/Museum owned by the Dean V. Kruse Foundation in Auburn who are in a financial mess and ordered to sell up to cover large debts.
However word of warning some of the vehicle are rather more of a mock up than actual original parts, especially where the bodies are concerned. Some are better than others, wood sheets, body filler etc totally wrong wheel sets all sorts of issues really including engines and a host of internal parts missing. But still some ideal restoration projects :)

looks like it's a part of the former museum in Arlon Belgium that was sold more then 15 years ago...
