1 March 4th thru July 13th, 2025 The 1960s was a new era for design. The postwar culture had shifted. Music, architecture, clothing – everything was being re-imagined and car design was no exception. Designing and building your own sports car was a trend that started after World War II and continued thru the 1960s and beyond. Enterprising and talented young men who were car-centric, were driven by a passion to create something that would be uniquely their own – a sports car tailored to their exact design. This exhibit embraces the handcrafted sports car movement by showcasing exceptional “1 of 1” automobiles as well as examples of skillfully designed models that you could buy and build if you had the determination, talent and skill. The cars in the exhibit represent the range of what was being built and more. Exceptionally rare today, we’re honored to have cars from the collections of the designers and builders themselves – the first such significant showing of handcrafted cars from this era at a museum in the world. The nine cars on display include: PART I: THE EXHIBIT Exhibit Overview Cars in Order By Year 1958 Thor Coupe 1962 Shark Roadster 1965 XKC Special 1966 Novetta 1968 Jamaican 1969 Lola T70 MKIIIB 1970 Amante GT 1972 Manta Mirage 1976 Cimbria
