Thank you to everyone who visited our “Craft of Speed” MOONEYES Documentary / Japanese American National Museum booth at All Toyotafest! It was a joy meeting everyone and sharing our film project and the museum’s upcoming exhibit, “Cruising J-Town: Behind the Wheel of the Nikkei Community.” We also enjoyed catching up with many of sponsors and supporters, including Hagerty, Japanese Nostalgic Car, and the Petersen Automotive Museum.
Special thanks to Brian Karasawa for displaying his beautiful 1977 RA29 Toyota Celica Liftback. With its dazzling orange color and exceptional craftsmanship, it turned a lot of heads and attracted a lot of visitors. Brian is part of Shoreline Racing, a multigenerational club that started in the 1970s.
All Toyotafest and the related Japanese Classic Car Show are incredible events to preserve history, build culture, and enjoy community. The Japanese Classic Car Show, which celebrates its 20th anniversary, will take place on Saturday, 10/11/2025. Please save the date for this momentous occasion.
We’ll be exhibiting again with the Japanese American National Museum at the MOONEYES Open House on Saturday, 7/12/2025. Come celebrate MOONEYES’ 75th Anniversary and learn more about our film and “Cruising J-Town.”
