Houston, TX - 4/1/11 - SpeedHunters Japanese Nostalgic Meet

Post by datsun65 »

MaydayGarage has teamed up with our good friends at SpeedHunters to bring you the MaydayGarage/SpeedHunters All Japanese Nostalgic Car Meet Friday, April 1st!

Located in the heart of Downtown Houston, this meet will take place at MoonTower Inn, Houston's BEST hotdog stand serving exotic meats such as duck, wild boar, pheasant, lamb, venison, and rabbit all served on a warm pretzel bun. MoonTower Inn is also known for their excellent draft beer and huge outdoor venue. A popular spot for cyclists and foodies, MoonTower Inn is also hugely popular with the best chefs in Houston.

Moon Tower Inn
3004 Canal
Houston, TX 77003

This meet will be held on the streets (very wide) surrounding MoonTower Inn and will start at 5pm sharp. If you want to get your classic JDM ride some serious exposure on MaydayGarage and SpeedHunters' blogs, be sure to be there before 7pm where the sunlight is at it's optimum.

So come out and have some great beer and an exotic hotdog and meet your fellow JDM Classic brethren!

I headed out to the Nostalgic meet and it was a really great event. From the early datsun family was my 66 Roadster (KA24DE), a Blue 510 (SR20VE), a 240z (l28T), and another two 240z.

The atmosphere was really great and it was a beautiful drive on the way home with temps in the low 70's.

Here are a few pics taken by others:

Just for the record - I could have driven there - but I didn't have my header hooked up to the exhaust pipe yet ;-) I would definitely have made an entrance though.

Thanks for posting the pix Dan.

Cheers

MaydayGarage did an awesome write-up on the event. They took some fantastic photos of the roadster, as well.
