4th Annual California Japanese Classic Car Show - Pictures
 

Here's pictures from a good show. Less than a dozen first generation RX-7, but many fine cars. There are 3 pages. Navigation hints: Slideshow button at bottom of page along with thumbnail size adjustment slider. Mosaic view is an efficient way to view select pics.

I like what Apple does, but that MobileMe gallery crap has got to go.

Gotcha. Don't much care for Apple's cheesy "Mobile Me" branding or the gallery navigation design either. Except that it makes it quick and easy for me to post and share pictures with others.

oh, and nice pics. Such a great event to have all those awesome cars in one place.

Thank you Mike-
looks like the weather gods cooperated!! (OK its LA - when DON'T they??) NICE pics - thanks for the "detail" shots ;)
Cosmo-under-construction is stunning. Looks like a good turnout all round.
Was that LENO toodling around in the S600 conv??? :D - nice grab Mr. Paparazzi
Someone had a pretty sweet white LS there too I see...

Great photos! Looks like an awesome event.
What I liked:
1. The IMSA car runs the same steering wheel as my stocker!
2. Those cuties mext to your car. Introduce me.
3. The immaculate Epsilions on that black car. I'd give a kidney for set like that.
4. The Toyota 2000 GT. That car is the pinnacle of Japanese automotive
design.
5. Goes without saying that your ride was probably the cleanest there.

Loved the pics, especially all the old 7s and Toyota's, particularly that IMSA Celica.

You do scrutinize pics well Stu. Indeed it was Jay Leno in the S600 convertible. From what I saw later he was more than generous in giving his time to autograph and photo seekers. He's become a regular at this show.

The organizers did a superb job this year. Very good organization and communication.

beautiful aurora whits LS...yours Mike?

-And you should see his Sunrise Red 79 ;)

I hate the way the pics are posted on the mobileme thing, but they are great pictures for sure. :)

Mike those tires aren't new are they? BTW your car looks great and those were great pics.

The only RWL I could source in 13in were these:

Thanks Tim! After exhaustive searches I think the Cooper Cobra G/Ts are the last remaining 13" tires with raised white lettering that best emulate the RWL of the original Bridgestone Steel Belted 70s that shipped from the factory. I do enjoy the look of the RWL. I have purchased and have stored a couple of sets of the Cobra's, since my Eagle STs are too old for daily driving. Will use the Eagles for shows a couple of times a year and will use the Cobras for daily driving.

Your Silver SA is excellent. I saved your wheel picture long ago into my "favorites" folder from one of your helpful past posts. Your waffle wheels, center cap and all, are fantastic.

My Epsilons have a white E in the center caps. Didn't know there was a red one.

Still willing to trade a kidney...

Could end up being karma, the car the Epsilons came off of a 7 that originated in CA. It had a salvage tittle because it failed emissions there. I had planned on saving them for a GSL that I've been sitting on as a replacement for my FC DD. I don't need any body parts, yet, lol, but I hear kidneys go for 50-100k. :) Depending on how this winter goes, I may be inclined to part with them, but they won't go cheap. PM me in Dec/Jan, I may be more inclined to sell them then. I do have a set of 13X8 Revolutions that are in excellent condition for sale, 4X110 pcd.

nice pics! there are some CLEAN gsl-se's....

not to mention my favorite the IMSA SA, anyone notice they have modded it more lately? its got a different seat, camber plates etc etc

i don't think i've spent that much time lookin' at ALL the pictures from a gallery of a car show...nothing but unique beauty in those pictures, :pbeara:
