Posted May 13, 200618 yr comment_167382 I was scouring the Auctions in Japan just today when I came across a cool looking yellow t-shirt with a C110 on it. I was curious so I clicked... yeah yeah the usual slightly amusing engrish paraphrase, but what caught my eye was the car. It looked familiar somehow... but why? Look closely at the details... does it remind you of anything?:classic: LINK: http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e57547269I'll give you a clue. It's not in Japan. :eek: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20031-someones-famous/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

May 13, 200618 yr comment_167396 ...And at the top of the post containing the quote MikeW used......I cant take the credit for this info, as i sourced it of the net..So it's out there somewhere. So many sites carrying Skyline history seem to pinch it from elsewhere on the 'net....warts 'n allLOL Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20031-someones-famous/#findComment-167396 Share on other sites More sharing options...

May 13, 200618 yr comment_167414 the silhouette of the license plate is not japanese issue, and the rear "skyline" is different font than oem badge Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/20031-someones-famous/#findComment-167414 Share on other sites More sharing options...

May 14, 200618 yr Author comment_167442 Well done Ben! I thought I was being too obvious but apparently not! Anyway, interesting that he's not only ripped off the picture but the information too! He's got other similar shirts too, probably done in a similar fashion. But it's still cool to see, especially for you Michael!
