HDI Museum Tip: The Nethercutt Collection, Sylmar, California
We recently were told about The Nethercutt Collection in Sylmar, California and for vintage automobile enthusiasts like us, you don’t have to tell us twice to go and see an incredible car collection like this one!
The Nethercutt Collection features more than 250 classic cars dating back to the earliest days of automobiles, as well as collection of Orchestrions: automatic-playing mechanical musical instruments, and even entire orchestras, typically more than a century old. We are highlighting the car collection in our photos, but we were truly impressed with the whole museum and we highly recommend that you visit this gem, should you find yourself in Los Angeles.
Started in the 50’s by the owners of Merle Norman Cosmetics, the Collection began with one car, restored by J.B. Nethercutt himself. The 1930 DuPont Model G won the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
You will find row upon row of beautifully restored cars….
Oh, and another highlight in this spectacular collection are the many, many (over a 1000) vintage hood ornaments. Absolutely amazing!
Enjoy!
