10th Annual Japanese Classic Car Show at the Queen Mary in Long Beach, Ca

The 10th Annual Japanese Classic Car Show was this past Saturday in Long Beach, Ca. The events park right next to the Queen Mary was filled with vintage Honda, Datsun and Toyota automobiles. It was my first time at the event and I definitely look forward to next year's show. A few of my customers had told me that the JCCS show attracts some unique vehicles. 

If you are into classic Datsun cars and trucks, then the JCCS event is the place for you. There was row after row of wagons, 510s and compact trucks.

There were even a number of classic Japanese motorcycles on display. I saw some fully restored Honda bikes that I had not seen in person before JCCS.

I spend most of my weekends at car shows for classic American cars, so the Japanese Classic Car Show was a nice change of pace for me. No matter what, it is always great going to a car show and seeing countless automotive enthusiasts who are passionate about what they drive.

Thank you for all of the fun, JCCS! I had a great time at the show. Check back next week for more event coverage from around the country, plus upcoming events at California Car Cover.

Mustangs at the Queen Mary 2012

This past Sunday was an eventful one in Southern California. I was in Woodland Hills bright and early to meet up with some customers at Super Car Sunday to promote our last two car shows of the year at California Car Cover: the Tri-Five Show and the Nova + Chevelle event. 

From Super Car Sunday it was off to the Mustangs at the Queen Mary Car Show in Long Beach, Ca. Quite a few of our customers support and attend the show, so I drove down there in the more to check out well over 300 Mustangs of all generations.

 The Mustang show was hosted by our friends at the Beach Cities Mustang Club. This was the 16th year for the car show. It is in a great location right next to the Queen Mary with plenty of parking for Ford and Mustang enthusiasts.

 The morning started with a driver's meeting to discuss all the events and the awards taking place during the show.

 Our friends from Creations n' Chrome were on hand with their chromed Mustang.

 Whether you like the old Mustangs or the new ones, there were plenty of Mustangs on display from every generation.

Big thanks to Eddie and everyone at Beach Cities Mustang Club for the invite. I had a great time at the show and hopefully California Car Cover and I can make it back next year.

Old Ford repair books and shop manuals

 In the afternoon I cruised back over to the Topanga Vintage Market in Woodland Hills. I was hoping to find some cool car stuff at the event and I was able to find a few cool items.

 There were a few cool steel signs and old oil cans ready for purchase. The next vintage market is October 28th if you need anything for your garage or shop.
