Trip To Japanese Motor Museum

[Rolou]

In May this year we were lucky to travel to Japan with 2 other couples from the Classic Japanese Car Club. The highlight of our trip was a visit to the Japanese National Museum where there were 2 corollas , a 69 KE10 coupe which was a 4 speed column shift and a LHD sprinter. Moving on to the Toyota Museum , in the Japanese section, was a 67 KE10 and a red KE15 sprinter. These cars were brand new and after a little talk to the curator, he allowed me to lift the bonnet of the sprinter.I will never forget the thrill of seeing these cars

 

 

 

Cheers Lou

Nice one. I went to Toyota MegaWeb a few years ago. Great spot! Shame they weren't doing the live car restoration when I was there..
