The biggest problem with these is that you kind of have to get a turbo setup, otherwise you look like a tool with a giant spoiler to keep your slow ass widebody in check.

Ill probably be at the Great Falls C&C on the 27th, there is a meet up that way at noon anyway so I might as well make a day of it.

This was a completely different Cars and Coffee. I typically go to the Richmond C&C, this one was in Great Falls. Its about 2hrs north. Its all money up there. Lots and lots of money.

Nope, didnt even bother setting the alarm as I got to bed at 2am. I would have had to be up at 430 to get to Great Falls by 7 (yea, their C&C starts at 7 ). Plus I had to be at work in the afternoon.

Get that framed fool...hang it in the garage.
I had the yota in the middle...an 87. That picture just made me miss it in a major way. I knew nothing about cars, it had a weird brake noise, probably just needed rear shoes...my grandpa got swindled into me swapping over to a 91 civic hatch.

On 2nd thought, I wish I had both or either of those cars as project cars.

I would love an '83 Supra to restore and make it all uber-JDMey like Synth's GT-R. I feel like that was the heyday for Japanese sports cars for about a decade and then it just fell apart for another decade after that.

2.5 hours for C&C is dedication

The next one is this Saturday?

I think all manufacturer's have a time where they're styles look cool/classic. They all looked like old POS's until recently. It's a cycle...like bellbottoms. At some point, the Japanese will probably revisit their classic styles like the American cars are all doing now.

If you're trying to find an exact body match, that won't work. But all three are doing throwback versions that have the basic feel and overall look to em that matches their predecessors.

I can agree on the Challenger, but I wish the others went farther back to the roots.
