Metallica frontman James Hetfield has donated a collection of several custom vehicles to the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, CA.
As Hagerty.com reports,
“The metal musician’s collection includes Voodoo Priest, based on a ’37 Lincoln Zephyr, a ’36 Auburn roadster named Slow Burn, a Delahaye inspired ’34 Packard, Aquarius, a ’36 Ford in bare metal called Iron Fist, a purple ’56 Ford F-100 pickup truck, and three cars by custom fabricator Rick Dore: Black Pearl, a custom 1948 Jaguar, a ’52 Olds named Grinch, and Skyscraper, a 1953 Buick Skylark. The Hetfield cars will go on display next February in the museum’s Bruce Meyer Family Gallery. Along with the cars will be artifacts and memorabilia from Hetfield and Metallica’s private collections.”
Here’s the story of Black Pearl:
When Andy dreams… Maybe someday the Hetfield-donated vehicles etc, etc will travel to a Wisconsin museum for a limited-time showing?
