The entire album (all 198 pictures) can be seen here. High res versions available in .zip files are uploading and will be posted soon.

And guess who I met? The great Ben Hsu, publisher of Japanese Nostalgic Car magazine and website. Lemme tell you something about this man. He's a really cool dude. He was there looking at vehicles and trying to see which ones he can get a chance to do a write up on. I was so starstruck I forgot to ask if he could take a picture with me. He did give me a JNC sticker, though which will be going on the Corolla when it's done.

my 1st car was the same as the corolla in the 1st pic on the right. 2 speed auto 1166cc engine. downhill with a tailwind it was good for 110km/h (70mpg) but was revving at 5k so needed rest breaks...

LOL at the Scarface car, only in Bridgeport.

I want to know where half of these guys are finding these cars. I looked for ages for early yotas and Datsun 510's, and in the event that I found one that WASN'T in California, it was laying in pieces, rusty, and some schmoe was asking at least $2500 for the pile of parts.

I didn't know you're from this area. I've seen most of the cars that are from around here over the past few years.

this was taken about 1 hour after I picked it up ! summer,1969! It still had the clear plastic on the door panels . I was on my way to the tire shop and took the white walls off and put on Pirelli P-77"s...

Very nice, thanks for sharing your old school enthusiasm. Damn, it reminds me...I really really need a Datsun 2000 real soon.

In 1971 I ever so briefly "almost" owned a brand new Datsun 240Z, white with red interior...

...I ordered it and when it arrived at the dealer after the obligatory 4 month wait and before ever driving it, I sold my place in line/rights to it for $100 and bought my beloved '67 E-type Roadster instead....that was not very JDM of me :( but I'm making up for it now.
