J.B. Nethercutt ranked among the heavy hitters of car collecting for over fifty years, amassing a treasure trove of rare and remarkable machines numbering in the hundreds. Packard, Pierce-Arrow, Duesenberg, Cadillac, Chrysler, Marmon, Mercedes, Ruxton and Stutz are just some of the great nameplates he collected.
Today, the Nethercutt Collection is a world-class assemblage of the finest motorcars in history, and it's also one of the most accessible to the general public.
J.B.'s great grandson, Cameron Richards, serves as the vice president and curator of the collection. Cameron has been a regular guest on Jay Leno's Garage and is committed to introducing a new generation of car enthusiasts to the "Grand Era" of the motorcar.
In this episode, you'll hear the full story of how the collection came to be, and you'll learn about the "Crown Jewels" of J.B.'s obsession- as well as what it takes to keep it all preserved, maintained and ready for the road.
