Over the years, this 84-year-old man has not only cultivated his North Carolina farm, but also cultivated a passion for collecting vintage cars.
For over eight decades, Waynnie has called this farm his house.
However, his collection extends way beyond vehicles – every room and every corner of his place is stuffed with pieces from history, as if one is living in a museum.

Amazing vintage cars owned my North Carolina farmer
Thanks to The Appalachian Channel for covering Waynnie’s story on their YouTube channel.
One of the most striking car in his collection is a 1955 Chevy Belair.
Waynnie bought this iconic piece from his neighbor, and the car had low mileage, making this possession even more valuable.
Over the years, Waynnie made some improvements to the car, keeping it in top-notch condition.
However, his collection of vintage cars wouldn’t be complete without another Chevy.
Luckily for Waynnie, his collection includes a 67 Chevrolet that he rescued from a junkyard years ago.
The man’s love for car shines not in his collection, but his dedication in keeping it pristine over the years.
After rescuing the 67 Chevy, Waynnie restored it to its former glory and maintained it the same way ever since.
In addition to the ’67 Chevy, Waynnie also owns a 1971 Caprice and a 1979 truck he acquired from Virginia with just 66,000 miles on it.
His collection goes beyond cars
Waynnie is a farmer, so of course he’s also obsessed with tractors.
However, his collection of tractors is a little bit special too, as some of them have fascinating history attached to them.
Just like his vintage car collection, Waynnie has maintained his tractors in top condition by continuously repairing and painting them over the years.
The farm is a house of vintage items- from old cigarette advertisements and bottles to a rack for Winston Salem and Camel cigarettes, every corner speaks history.
With over 83 years on the farm, Waynnie’s collection is certainly precious and definitely unique.
