Just received the latest issue of JNC...

...and I can't wait to read it! Been a while since our cars have been on the cover of a magazine. BTW great magazine to read.. too bad its quarterly so I have to wait 3 months or so before I get the next issue.

Check out the page with the OSJC (old school japanese cars: requirements, japanese and 25+ years old) meet pics. IT was a meet I went to in October. I don't know if they talk about it, but it was at Mary Alice Park in Cumming, GA. I was at the meet, but I didn't make any pics. I don't have the magazine but I saw a page scan. It's pretty cool.

Here's a few pics I took at the OSJC meet in Cumming last summer. There was a good rotary turn out that day. If they cover it in the mag could you scan in a few pages?

Damn - what a yummy looking Fairlady Zee. Thanks for the pix Ray! Sure wish they had these events up North!!
I have subscribed to JNC and it is a quality mag. It only has a staff of 4 guys, the 2 brothers being the main publishers. They must work their @sses off to put it together. They score reports from Japan, Oz, etc too so it has a real international flavor. Spectacular photography too - plus a sold website to support it

You can buy a copy of it from the store at there site without subscribing to the mag. Being a SMALL (read four staff members) mag that is paid for with a LOT of out of pocket cash by Ben and Dan, it would be nice to support them by purchasing a copy. They are solid guys who do a ton for promoting our hobby from just spreading the word to sponsoring shows and event related to old Japanese Cars. I think you will be very happy with the quality of the mag!

Sorry guys I've taken a while to respond. I wasn't able to scan the page for you but I should by this weekend. Sadly, they didn't do a write up of your event in GA. Great pics btw. They just put various little pictures, a collage if you will, in one page. I think they tried to include as many events they attended in this issue so that might explain why they did not do a full coverage of each event.

As mentioned by Stu and the above poster, I also have to agree that there is nothing but good things to say about this magazine and their staff. They put so much work and great effort into this magazine dedicated to nostalgic, classic Japanese cars like our first-gens and do great features. They have a daily updated blog on their website and great forum just dedicated to old nostalgic cars. I subscribed in their second issue and ordered the previous premier issue so I have all the issues so far and hope they keep printing!

No doubt, those JNC guys are the next best thing to rotorheads. I'll get the mag.

They don't give us enough respect (the OSJC crew scrapped an FB to get money to cover the hot dog and hamburgers at the GA event) but hey, they know a good car when they see one.

So here's to the Zero's:



And here's some more shots of that Ladybug:

Sorry for the late response guys.. I wasn't able to get access to a scanner but I took pics with my camera phone. I'll try again this weekend for a better quality.
