The Honda N600, serial number 1000001. This is the first of 50 Hondas initially sent to the US in 1967 to see if they’d sell.
SPOILERS: They did.
This year marks our 60th anniversary in America. To commemorate this milestone, we’re looking back at the restoration of our very first car imported to the U.S. Watch Tim Mings bring Serial One back to mint condition before it went on to live in the American Honda Museum forever.
I think the last Hot Wheels restoration was bigger than this car.
With a glorified motorcycle engine, no less. Glad it went to a museum instead of a private collector.
Fascinating. I wish I had those kinds of skillz.
Ugh, I know. It’s like watching a fucking magic trick.
