1968 1600 roadster "Yoko"

Post by Joshua »

Hey! My name is Joshua and I am the owner of SPL311-1799 named Yoko. Been on here for months but didn't want to make an introduction until I had her in my possession. She was given to me by my late grandfather, but was originally left to my cousin in his will. She isn't much of a car person, especially Japanese classics. So I was the one who took up the duty to restore her and get her back on the road. Glad to be here with you guys

Welcome all that comes to mind for me is the Bare Naked Ladies - "Be my Yoko Ono".
And now I can't get that song out of my head.
Welcome - looking forward to pictures!!

Welcome. I see you're in Pittsburgh. I'm about an hour or so south. Maybe we'll see each other out on the road so day.

I'm from a little town north east "Butler PA" now on the California Central Coast. Don't think we'll run into each other, but can't wait to see your roadster.

How often do you make it back to your cars? There are some great roads down here near Morgantown that are perfect for these cars.
