San Francisco Japantown - J's Gathering 1/13/08 - Roadsters

Post by Alvin »

All,
I have been contacted by the organizer of this show to invite some roadsters again for the Jan. 2008 show
I got 6 roadsters to attend this show in 2005. It was fun! We actually won some trophies but left early, so Eric Gillis, Joe Kinstle, Fred Katz, Dan Zubkoff, and Matt Jacquet please come out again! After the show we drove out to the Marina to enjoy the sunshine and views.

As added incentive, Ernersto(organizer) has promised me the following:

"Normally it's $30 per car and I can do $15 per car if you get 5 or more! I will open up a best Datsun Roadster award catagory of a 1st-3rd if at least 5 roadsters register and 1st-5th if 7+ register"

So if you're into awards and a good time please come out, I will cover you reg fee if you can make it :wink:

I'll go to this show again. I just won't spend too much time in the parking garage. Alvin, let me know if spots are still available.

Show is full. I am not going to push for spots if it's just a few cars. I needed at least 5-7.
Jr. wanted to let you guys know that no cars will be allowed to idle and exhaust fans will be on...but maybe next year we can attend. It's a great way to show the late-model import crowd some vintage Datsuns.

Alvin,
How much is it to get in the door? I didn't say anything earlier as my car isn't pretty, and I wasn't sure I'd be back from vacation. I'd like to come check it out.

Will
Sorry, I find modern engine swaps revolting. Keep your G, R, or U series in your Roadster!

This show was fun. Very nice 67.5. It was mostly newer cars. I saw a couple of Silvias. There was a '72 Celica. The best part was the breakdancing competition. That was off the hook.
