Classic Cars in Japan (and elsewhere)

[XH29N0G]

I just finished a short visit to Japan (Yokohama/Tokyo area) and was pleased to see a number of classic and muscle cars (probably 10 or so and I was mostly inside at meetings) driving in the cities and parked at houses.  I don't have pictures, but will check with my son who joined for the trip. My son explored on his own and found a high end car auction house with crazy supercars and several industrial museums with engine and car exhibits.

The classic cars were frequent, like I have seen in only a few other places (Odense, Denmark in the summer and shore towns in Western Australia) and looked to be in excellent condition.  I thought I would post, to see if other members had other places where these cars are common so I can keep an eye out and add them to my bucket list of places to visit.  All in all, I have only visited Japan 2 other times and each time find the people welcoming and the society impressively efficient (and safe).

I'm in the Netherlands right now and there are thousands here.

Here's a small sample:

We used to have a member from Japan on here a while back with a '69 Charger.... his screen name was "EBI"

Thanks for the pointer on the Netherlands. I think what like about all of this is how there is a common appreciation of old machines that extends across cultures.  (I also saw old Japanese vehicles on the road which was a treat.)

Japan used to have Mach 1 police cars

There are USA cars and clubs all over Europe.

I see more classic American cars driving the streets of my home country, New Zealand, than I do the USA on my visits.
