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.

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.

Your Arch Enemy
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.

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.

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.

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.
