The Nethercutt Collection
nethercuttcoll...
The Nethercutt Collection is a multi-storied museum and car collection complex located in Sylmar, California. It was founded by J.B. Nethercutt in 1971 and its centerpiece is the prestigious automobile collection of the Nethercutt-Richards family that contains over 250 cars, nearly all of which J.B. originally collected and owned. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest car museums in the world.
The museum also houses collections of mechanical musical instruments, including orchestrions, player pianos, music boxes, antique furniture, watches, and an automotive research library. Another unique piece in the collection is the Canadian Pacific Railway's famous Royal Hudson steam locomotive No. 2839 built in 1937. The semi-streamlined Royal Hudson steam locomotive is one of four that survive today.

Nethercutt Museum / Collection is so under appreciated, one of the best places to visit in Los Angeles SFV plus the main “museum” is free! Can’t believe all these classics are in a drivable condition. The Collection requires a reservation and is well worth making an effort to see! All this rolling art is fantastic. PS - took my Japanese in-laws and they said it was their most memorable spot of their trip to the states!

Awesome video! I've been wanting to make my way over there. Did you have to get special permission to film or are they pretty cool about that?

Thanks for watching, Javier! The folks at the Nethercutt were totally fine with us filming. The only thing is that we were not allowed to use a handle (selfie stick) for our phones. We handheld our phones which was at times a little shaky, but image stabilization in post helped a lot. How are you doing these days? All good? I liked your video on Andersen's Pea Soup, so thank you!

@@SWExplore Thank you for the info! I'm doing well, working on the next video. We still need to grab that steak dinner at Steak Corral!

@@californiography Yes we still do need to meet at the Steak Corral. The weather is improving and I’ll ride my bike down there to meet you. 😉
