This new year is proving to be one of the busiest for car buffs we have had in some time. After a very active January, LCOC is invited to tour the Nethercutt Collection and Museum, 15151 Bledsoe St, Sylmar, CA 91342, on Saturday Feb 10 along with our friends and fellow classic car owners from the Southern California Imperial Owners, Inc.
SCIOI has arranged for a private tour of the fantastic Nethercutt Collection, and has invited local car clubs to join.
While you are planning to visit the Nethercutt, don’t forget to check out our LCOC Calendar which lists a fabulous Lincolns and Lattes event on Feb. 3 as well as our traditional Lakewood, CA kickoff car show and luncheon Feb. 25 with the SoCal Cadillac & LaSalle Club!
The Nethercutt Collection tours are by appointment only, so this is a rare opportunity to see some amazing cars separate from the Nethercutt Museum.
The 3-part Saturday, February 10 event starts with collection tour ticket purchase and tire kicking at 9:15 a.m., check-in at 9:45, the private Nethercutt Collection tour from 10 a.m. to noon, followed by lunch and then a visit to the separate Nethercutt Museum.
NOTE: Tickets for the private tour are payable the day of the event. Tickets must be purchased (credit/debit cards ONLY) at the Nethercutt Museum Counter before you check-in for your tour across the street. Doors open 15 minutes before the start of the tour.
Free parking at 15151 Bledsoe St. Sylmar, CA 91342 (enter on Bradley St.)
It is important to arrive before check-in time at 9:45 a.m.; otherwise you will miss out on the first floor of the tour (1920s Packard faux showroom)
Items to bring: Your Club Name Badge. Wear comfortable shoes and bring (optional) water. The tour is two hours long, starts at 10 a.m., and will walk you through 4 floors. There is an elevator and seating throughout the tour if needed.
RSVP is required in advance. The museum wants a headcount of people attending the private tour.
