In a remote corner of Wisconsin lies a treasure trove that would make any petrolhead weak at the knees. Peter Cunningham's private car collection is a shrine to the racing legacy of Honda and Acura, with championship-winning machines that have left their mark on the track. From NSX Type R shift knobs to a faithful replica of the original Honda headquarters facade, every corner of this collection exudes automotive history and passion.
Cunningham's love affair with Hondas spans over three decades of racing glory, culminating in what is now one of the largest private Honda collections worldwide. These cars aren't just static displays; some are taken out for a spin on the streets, meticulously maintained by a network of friends rather than a full-time crew. The showroom setup mirrors a dealership, complete with parts and service areas, adding an authentic touch to the experience.
Among the gems in this collection are the immaculate Civic RS, Integra Type Rs from different regions, and unique models like the Honda Amamos and T360 truck, each with a story to tell. The meticulous care taken to preserve originality is evident in details like the S600's vintage tires and the Integra Type R with a mere 4700 miles on the clock. Cunningham's foresight in recognizing the future value of these machines shines through, making each car not just a collector's item but a piece of automotive history preserved for generations to come.
