The Japanese Classic Car Show is an annual event that has grown into one of the most respected gatherings for lovers of vintage Japanese vehicles. Taking place in Long Beach, California, it highlights the craftsmanship, culture, and timeless design of kyusha cars, a term used for classic Japanese machines that shaped the automotive landscape. Visitors can explore rare models, meet restoration specialists, and immerse themselves in a vibrant atmosphere that celebrates Japan’s rich automotive heritage.
SEMA’s Automotive Restoration Market Organization, known as ARMO, is dedicated to preserving and promoting the automotive restoration industry. By joining the 20th edition of the Japanese Classic Car Show, ARMO brings valuable resources to car enthusiasts who want to keep history alive. Fans will be able to visit ARMO’s booth, learn about the restoration process, and connect directly with professionals who keep these classics on the road.
The Long Beach event offers more than a display of cars, it is a chance to experience the stories behind the machines. From exploring restoration techniques to meeting owners who dedicate their lives to preserving automotive history, the show offers a unique mix of culture and passion. Fans will find an environment that celebrates not only the cars themselves but also the community that values and protects this heritage.
Started my career in Automotive Journalism in 2015. Even though I'm a pharmacist, hanging around cars all the time has created a passion for the automotive industry since day 1.
