Cars

Wheels of Yesteryear car museum showcases over 50 vintage American muscle cars owned by Paul & Carol Cummings of North Carolina. In total, Paul and Carol own over 100 vintage automobiles and trucks that have been restored over the past 45 years.

Each January, Wheels of Yesteryear closes for two weeks to rotate and change some of the inventory to better showcase the immense variety of this spectacular collection.
