The Nethercutt Collection includes more than 250 of the world's finest automobiles, as well as musical instruments, French furniture, European decorative pieces, a Canadian railroad locomotive and a private American railcar. Most of these rare collectibles are housed in two buildings in Sylmar, north of Los Angeles. One building is referred to as the Collection, while the other one is called the Museum. Both are open to the public free of charge. They are a must-see attraction for car enthusiasts.

This gallery features most of the dozens of cars in the Collection building, which can be viewed only by signing up in advance for a guided tour. I have two other galleries devoted to the approximately 150 cars on public display at the Museum building. For more information, go to the Nethercutt Collection's Web site at http://www.nethercuttcollection.org .

I shot the photos in this gallery with a handheld Nikon D300 and a Nikkor 18-200mm VR zoom. All have been resized for online viewing.
