Pretty cool - Two magazine appearances in one month!

Hemmings Sports & Exotics is one of my favorite periodicals - It's a great read, and features a good blend of high-end cars and regular (affordable) vehicles... Great articles on restorations and every issue has an article on some obscure car from back in the day.

Anyhow, they did an article on the 7th Annual Japanese Classic Car Show and got some pics of our 311, our 320 and our 310.

I'll get better images later (once I have access to a scanner):

Woooooooooo!

Those Datsuns definitely deserve to be featured. Maybe this will generate some more interest from other magazines and websites now :)

+1. Well done. I already subscribe to the regular Hemmings. I now need to think about subscribing to their Sports and Exotic magazine.

It's pretty much the best magazine out for people with real and varied car tastes. That and I got drunk with two of the editors a couple years back.
