I've been there twice. Just showed-up, walked through the guard shack, 
gave them my passport and followed the sgns through the office building 
to the courtyard separating the museum from the offices. Hd the place 
virtually to myself, both times. A guard threw me out at 12:30 and told 
me to come back at 2:00 (that pesky Italian lunch "hour" again). Went 
across the A8 to the AutoGrille (the one with the huge arches from 
whence you can see not only the big "Alfa Romeo" neon sign atop the 
factory building as well as the back side of the museum directly across 
the autostrade!) to have lunch, waited for the appointed hour, and went 
back, finished my tour.

In other words, just show up. AFAIK, the museum is open during the 
business day every business day except during the lunch hour.
