Sepia Collection (セピアコレクション)
This is a sizable, by-appointment-only, private collection. The 100-car collection is open to the public only one or two days a month, so arranging a time might proove challenging. Ratcheting up the degree of difficulty is that visits must be negotiated in Japanese. It's a pretty cool collection though.

5 minute walk from Araki Station (Kagoshima Main Line)
