On June 28, 2025, at 2:00 pm, we invite you to a special presentation by Tom Cotter on a landmark in American automotive history: the Cunningham C-3, widely regarded as America’s first postwar sports car. Developed by Briggs Cunningham to meet homologation requirements for his celebrated Le Mans racecars, the C-3 was an ambitious blend of American engineering and European craftsmanship.
On display will be Cotter’s own C-3—the second ever built—a remarkable machine with a fascinating past. Though once discovered as a humble barn find, this car’s journey is steeped in rich history and racing legacy. This is a rare opportunity to hear the full story from one of the most engaging storytellers in the collector car world.
