I made it out to the Japanese Classic Car Show this year, really nice show. The park/parking lot was a great setting with the Queen Mary and Long Beach in the background. The show was actually smaller than I expected, but still an amazing group of cars.

These photos are a little RX3 biased, as I'm a sucker for those more than the rest. I'm also a big fan of the Datsun mini truck about halfway through the gallery.

Here's the gallery, enjoy:

And few teaser shots:

T-twig, you'll like this one (if you haven't already seen it). Full carbon bodied N600 with a bike motor mounted sidewinder style and some Pike's Peak worthy wings...

That is one insane car
can't even begin to imagine the noise and vibration the driver would suffer through
This is much more my style

I saw that Z600 long before it was done about a year before I bought my N600. Guy lives up in the Filmore area. He had spent a TON of money already, and it wasn't even close to done. He was smart and had gotten a full splash of the car done, so it was probably very easy to get that carbon body laid up. I know Kurt Bulinski (the Kimini guy) had talked to him at some point, so perhaps there was a strong influence there. To make that car, he took an old DSR, chopped off the front and the rear boxes, shortened the wheelbase a bunch, and connected the dots. Not the most technically advanced way of doing things, but my hat is off to him for finding a way to get 'er dun.
