Hey guys,

I wanted to let anyone interested know about this show. It is happening next to the Queen Mary in Long Beach on October 1. It is for '85 and older Japanese cars only. My Skyline most likely won't be running by then, but I am going to load it up on the trailer and take it anyways. If anyone is able to go, here is the link.

I'd love to be able to drive into this show Brian, .... at least we can look forward to your photos and report. Who's gonna join him? Hope you have a great time.

We don't get stuff like this in Australia

My wife, my 320, and I will be there. We've already registered.

oops! moved to the correct forum! guess i was sleeping. Although, it would be nice if our 240K brothers could come to the show! I guess that whole "crossing the pacific ocean" thing complicates that a bit.

Pre Reg'd my Z and Roadster. Hope to see you guys there....

I really hope that I can make it to this show. Every year the MSA show is over my Mom's birthday. This show is the exact date of my kid sister's birthday. I am really going to have to do some sweet talking to go.

I have a feeling that this show is going to be a mecca for Fairlady Z's .

Ben, PM me and let me know if there is something I can do to help...

Not yet Lachlan,...not yet, but I think the time is fast approaching when a classic Japanese vehicles show would be an attractive consideration for a switched on promoter. Our biggest problem in Australia putting together the cars that would bring people in, is "The tyranny of distance", relatively small target groups spread over a huge area. That being said I can see smaller gatherings in each state, utilising car clubs to ramp up interest over time in a national gathering.

Amazing how easy it is to say , but the reality will be a lot of work for a lot of people...over a considerable amount of time. The guys of the Prince & Skyline Register of Australia called their first ever National meeting over three days in May 2004 in Beechworth, Victoria. A fantastic time, I went into Weber overload , but it kicked so many things into action on the Prince scene in Australia & New Zealand.

Maybe fuel for another thread for further discussion?

Jim.

** NEWS!**

As JCCS is being joined by YOKOHAMA Tires, Toyota,

Mazda and Nissan, some

of the trophies will be given by them. Please polish

your cars more than

usual, and get ready for the voting!! Your own will

be a judge to support

JCCS.

Yes, as you know, this car show is DIFFERENT from

other import car show.

This show is for "all Japanese classic cars", which

means that classic

Toyota, Datsun/Nissan, Mazda, Honda, Subaru,

Mitsubishi, Isuzu and Daihatsu

are all welcome to participate. That is why, parking

will be handled on an

"assigned area" basis, in order to let all the

registered Car Clubs and same

makes park together.

We believe that everyone will enjoy, learn &

respect the history of all

Japanese autos, regardless the brand.

We have 33 days left until the show, and

Pre-Registration will be closing

in 22 days. 22 days sounds like a lot of time, but

in reality, time flies so

fast as you working on your cars. So if your friends

are waiting for the

last minute to register, please encourage them to do

so as soon as possible,

if they are interested. That way, we can make

arrangements to park all the

same makes together, without hassle. (On the day of

the event, gate

registration WILL NOT guarantee parking within the

same make, or with your

car club)

We will update more info as closer to Oct.1st.
