Partner Event: The Japanese Classic Car Show
Oct
12

Partner Event: The Japanese Classic Car Show


About the Event

14 years ago a group of Southern California car enthusiasts got together with the idea of putting on a new event – one that would celebrate vintage Japanese automobiles and the culture that surrounds them. At the time this was a pretty bold idea, as classic Japanese cars had yet to reach mainstream acceptance.

Fast forward 14 years, JCCS® has become one of Southern California’s premier car gatherings. In recent years the event has grown right alongside the popularity of classic Japanese cars themselves.

It is and remains to be America’s First and Original Japanese Car Show, Dedicated to Old School Japanese Cars.
