Photos coming!
Yes! I think a full feature is expected on the front page and everything. Here are some snaps though of some of the lesser stuff that caught my eye... Please feel free to correct my inaccuracies. A first issue Civic RS:
A Tama Bellett that looks like it has had better days:
Tsukuba 2000GT, assuming driven all the way, imaging coming down on the Tohoku and getting passed by this:
Two very tasty Chiba GTs:
Twin cam Stout:
Toyopet truck of some sort:
The Toyopet's on-board back-up:
The owner of which told me he had driven from Ibaraki! I wanted to ask him how many days (or weeks) it took, but thought better of making a feeble joke on such an effort:
Especially too as his companion was cooking some
oimo at the rear of the truck, and insisted on giving me one fresh from his portable oven:
I missed the next 30 minutes of photography opportunities as I wandered aimlessly about with a hot
ishiyaki oimo in one hand and a fresh brewed
kohi in the other. Breakfast in the sun on a winter day:
Not that I've a thing for trucks or anything:
Mitsu no Mitsu (ha ha):
Simply one of the cleanest, tidiest cars I think I have ever seen. It would shame many a concours entrant the world over:
I think this Daihatsu has what is popularly called 'patina'. A Japanese word for 'looks-messy-but-at-least-it-is-original':
The coolest snow
takushi I've seen in a while:
Sled:
Unlike other cars, I am assuming this Midget did not drive too far from anywhere:
'Where is the engine?' I heard one
garu ask her BF:
This nice lady explained to me she had owned her 77 S since buying it new, and I think we then shared a giggle about us both driving Honda S-cars:
To close, a comment on just how great this event is. Tremendous! Not just for the
kyusha, but also for the vast array of cars, car history, car bits, and just car friends all in one place, on this day enjoying the sun and the event. Thoroughly recommended. Neko.
def looking fwd to the pix!
