    JCCS PRESENTS - STREET NEO CLASSICS – 80’S & 90’S SHOW

    DATE: SUNDAY OCT.18, 2015
    PLACE: TOYOTA MOTOR SALES U.S.A. INC – HEADQUARTERS IN TORRANCE, CA

    CALLING ALL STREET NEO CLASSIC CARS! SUNDAY OCT. 18TH.

    REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN! AT JCCS WEBSITE.

    INTRODUCING … THE INAUGURAL STREET NEO-CLASSICS – 80S & 90S CAR SHOW

    Back in the 1980s, Japanese cars really came into their own: instead of being cheap-and-cheerful econoboxes, they were able to go toe-to-toe with the world’s finest cars at that time, on their own merits and with no apologies. More drivers investigated cars from Japan, and were won over by the sharp performance, the high level of specification, the modern style, the technical excellence, the lush comfort and the utter reliability that these cars provided.

    This was the dawn of little Japanese muscles having the guts and temerity to, sometimes, beat the V8 power of tradition American muscle cars and pony cars. This was when magazines like Sport Compact Car and Super Street burst onto the scene, showing a new generation of speed freaks what was possible.

    Today, many of these cars are still too new to be considered “classic”–they still live on the streets, and are driven regularly, with great pride, by their owners. They have not yet been relegated to weekend-only status. They are original or restored, stock or custom, full-race or street-cool. What hot rods were to the 1950s, what muscle cars were to the 1970s and early ‘80s, these cars are to our modern era. We call this in-between generation of cars, from 1986-1999, that splits the difference between used car and full-on classic, Neo-Classic. Like the cars themselves, the spirit of Japanese-car love will not die. We invite you to celebrate this up-and-coming genre of car with us!

    Sunday, October 18, 2015, at the Toyota USA Headquarters in Torrance, California, for the inaugural Street Neo-Classic Car Show!

    This should be an exciting show. So if you have a vintage Japanese car from the 80's or 90's please sign up and enjoy the day! :)

    :) We are only two weeks away from this show, this will be a great inaugural show.

    :) If you own a car from the 80's or 90's please sign up. The cost is $35.00 which also includes a t-shirt.

    :) It is being held in Torrance at Toyota Headquarters, take advantage of being able to be on site at Toyota Headquarters as this will be one of the last chances to be on this historic site, before Toyota heads for Texas.

    I hope to see some familiar faces, either showing their cars or attending the show! :D

    SPEEDHUNTERS attended JCCS 80's and 90's Neo-Classic car show this past Sunday and posted an article on SPEEDHUNTERS website about this inaugural show. I was lucky enough to have my LS photograph by SPEEDHUNTERS and included in the photo spread show casing the show. :):):)
