Where Old meets New Japanese Classic Car Show

Then from Going: classic old school JDM Nissans, Toyota, Mazdas, Shakotan, Zokusha



Although there are many shows of cars that are held at the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California these days, the best in my opinion, by a long shot is the Japanese Classic Car Show Apart from Nisei, c is the only other show I've filed away under Miss can t I still remember the first time I've ever seen there are some seven years, and it is still as exciting now in its eight installments.
This is where vintage Japanese fans all brands can get their solution to some of the finest examples of both stock and modified J-Tin around this purpose, it is the only place I've ever seen people rub with Jay Leno underground JDM It really is a show with something in store for everyone, so that everyone can enjoy the classic Japanese cars.
Even the pickiest collectors DuPont Regsitry swoon in immaculate condition rarities like the Toyota 2000GT, which by the way was not t the only example on display last weekend and pristine original factory restorations constitute a good part of the show, but in recent years it has definitely been a boost in the number changed.
Most réceptionnée cars are built in a style that walks a delicate line between the own plant and performance boosted In the world of Hot Rodding this technique is called Restomod I find it a look that is quite pleasing and perhaps the second most common site ECCP.



Although I have a ton of respect for all kinds of cars, I know the crowd will Speedhunters especially dig the cars most crazy end of the spectrum While they aren t as common as the varieties mentioned above, there are many mental cars showing up these days to JCCS in fact, it is almost impossible to really the whole extent of it without being there.
And these over-the-top builds come in all colors and flavors of rough and smooth and beautiful brutal, but they tend to have one thing in swap common modern engines While cars can be 25 or over, who can t say for all engines powering the electricity.
Another emerging scene I sure some old school purists despise is that of the car Zombie I think it's a cool style perfectly and can see it grow over the coming years, the concept seems simple take less common chassis with some signs of age, slam, throw idler wheels on it and just make look right but do look right without being sticky is easier said than done Kudos to the owner.
The Datusn Fairlady Roadster is a car that has a real similar cult ECCP, outnumbered only by the S30 However, unlike the S30 that vary widely in style and amendments, most roadsters are almost all stocks or very near him and then again with a car this nice sometimes just racing stripe and a set of wheels to turn it off.



Other cars like the Toyota RWD wonders 80s also have a pretty die-hard fan base Although not quite as popular as the AE86, the KE70 has been proven to be just as capable and increasingly in popularity largely through Motorfix This orange sedan is one of the first super own modified versions I remember seeing stateside and we even featured a few years ago super Street during my time there.
The equally RWD and cool, but lighter, shorter and hatchback Toyota Startlet is another car that has seen a killer built in recent I spotted this green JCCS few years, but it looks just as good today ' hui he did the first time I checked.
Eric and the JDM Legends gang made the trek to Southern California all the way from Utah and, not surprisingly, made some amazing cars with them, I say not surprisingly because I imagine that most of the audience Speedhunters is quite familiar with them after Mike Garrett's impressive shopping tour function last month.
Of course, those of you who are reading this story probably recognize that the Savanna RX-7 which was finished a work in progress during the visit of Mike There is no doubt that the boys did an amazing job putting together this SA and we are so much in fact that you can expect full functionality coming soon.
Another car that loyal readers should recognize is that Acura Legend I showed my Nisei Spotlight-o-rama Although it usually remains the same and Vietnamese gangster looking than ever, there was a new change, I noticed that the art mentioned.



The car is for sale, which is true for all of you fanatics Legend crazy out there, here your chance to own a legendary turn get what I know, it was terrible.
Move right along, let's take a minute to s look under the hoods Power plants are as varied as the chassis and the owners, but if the hood is up, you can bet that you will see hardly anything; as clean 18R-G and super mostly factory.
The Restomod style mentioned above also continues in the engine compartment on some vehicles, as incredibly beautiful Hakosuka As kai GT badge on the grille suggests, this Skyline was changed.
But a quick glance under the hood doesn t reveal much, outside a health L series engine However on closer inspection those with a keen eye will notice that the plant carbohydrates have been set aside for fuel injection stealth ITB very intelligent configuration.



Other cars are the engine compartment even further by creating a fantastic combination chassis engine fantasy owner Installing this car 510 was so hot it is part innocent bystanders undress.
When I got a little more that I could not say I blame There's something about a turbo setup trick on SR that drives me crazy Can you feel it's getting hot tail Herre Nelly strike two, I know Joking aside it was very hot, but let's keep moving.
There are cars that are neither here-nor-there, but totally cool to stumble on still The Z31 is a car I've never imagined owning, let alone modifying, but I can not deny its potential after seeing off in this manner Although there are things that I would change, overall I would have to say this is the coolest example I remember seeing .
One of the great things about the Japanese classic car show is that there are many outlandish cars you Are not likely to see anywhere else in America Subaru 360 is a perfect example of such a funky car.
There are of course other kinds of oddball as first generation Integra This is a car of my friend Ernie Uy is rarely changed, but even if there were hundreds of them around while I doubt it would look ill.



It was a different Corolla-of-a-color that has quite obviously been modified for the quarter mile department Although this kind of configuration could be common in the Caribbean or even on the East Coast, I do not remember ever saw a KE70 like this it makes me want Dragster imports would come back in a big way.
Later in the day, I came across this RX-7, which looks oddly similar to the car built by JDM Legends, but it didnt There are some obvious similarities between the cars, such as the design of livery, but in some so they came out quite different.
I am told that the owner of this car was actually sending emails with Eric while building sound, which probably explains some coincidences However, this car has an undeniable touch of Bosozoku what I understand the rear wing on this car was custom built and 100 metal.
Help promote Japanese gangster style is a set of massive fender paired with some thirteen inches Dinky SSR MKIIIs It may seem questionable to discuss the size of the wheels, but that's a minor detail that separates a casual a passionate man is obsessed with how they do in the land of the rising sun.
The last of oddballs I want to talk today is the EF Civic Wagovan belonging to our friends Bisimoto t I would consider this car, which featured Linhbergh a while, a weirdo because the chassis or engine configuration, although not exactly the pulp and paper I d consider a weirdo simply because it marks the first year that the EF chassis is old enough to meet the criteria for the show, so it's never seen before.
On that note is what makes it so special JCCS, the show is evolving entity that manages to move forward without alienating the past Sá model that is almost utopian in terms of car events and I the hope, and I believe will remain for decades to come.



It really is a unique place where young and old can come together and I speak not only cars, but owners and spectators as well as I do not think I was at an event with an eclectic group people, and that's saying a lot considering the show is Gatebil.
So if you are ever in Southern California in September, do yourself a favor and check ECCP, it will be eight dollars well spent Ask anyone who's been there and they'll surely agree, it is a must show.
