2024 Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals
during holidays It's already started! For most of the country, Thanksgiving begins with Thanksgiving, but for muscle car enthusiasts, it begins with the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals (MCACN). MCACN has been around for more than a decade and is located not far from O'Hare Airport in suburban Chicago, making it an easy place to get in and out of. However, if that's what you do, you might learn your lesson and decide to stay at a hotel across the street from the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center because there are so many jaw-droppingly good things inside that you'll want to spent two days there. ClassicCars.com Journal can show you what you're missing. To paraphrase Bette Davis, buckle up because this is going to be a great ride. Detroit Steel Tubing was contracted to provide $3,400 worth of modifications to a 1963 Ford F-100 pickup truck, including a dual-quad 427. This is the only known modified pickup truck. After a…
Classic imports gather in Phoenix
Roosevelt Street Arts District Downtown Phoenix is home to some of the area's most popular art galleries, restaurants, and boutiques. Unsurprisingly, it was named 26th President of the United States. The Roosevelt Historic District is the first neighborhood in Phoenix to be designated as such. The area has since become a hotspot for car culture, and the Nine Club has hosted two successful gatherings here in 2024 to date. Here are the stories from September's event. At the end of November, everyone was back at it again with a bigger plan. Refreshments include boba tea and drip coffee from Joypop, while Stoop Kid offers delicious breakfast items for anyone with a craving. There was plenty of eye candy to sample, here are a few of my favorite vehicles in attendance: 1985 Porsche 911 Launched in 1964, the 911 has always been a favorite among collectors. The original iconic streamlined design is still popular today, and it's hard to believe that…
Back in Action: Kyusha Club 2024 Fall Auto Show
Summer 2024 is coming That's in our rearview mirror, which means Arizona's car culture is waking up for the outdoor season. Recently, new developments have begun at the Kyusha Club, a club beloved by The Wall Street Journal in recent years for its variety of vehicles and laid-back atmosphere. The event is a gathering of European and Japanese cars held near historic Roosevelt Street in downtown Phoenix, Arizona. The centerpiece of the September 28 event was an old car shop, with several specially invited cars parked inside. A surface parking lot to the east accommodated a few dozen more vehicles, and everyone else found street parking within a block or two of the site. One of the joys of the Nine Clubs is standing on the street watching the constant parade of interesting cars. Here are some of my favorite vehicles on display, arranged by model year. 1970 BMW 2002 This car helped establish BMW's reputation as a sporty compact…

FCCS is a racing-style event that celebrates the cars we love today and the collectibles of tomorrow, featuring vehicles of any year, make and model that best represent the future interest of the hobbyist.

Photo courtesy of Anthony Cataldo (@amcjphotos) One of the many vehicles at the event will be this 1999 Nissan Silvia S15 Spec R, which Cave Creek, Arizona resident Dave Leden recently purchased from Japan. It all started in November 2022 when Dave spent a lot of time looking for an original and unmodified vehicle and finally found this one. "That can be hard to do because a lot of these vehicles have been modified with body kits, bad engine modifications, or have rust issues," he said. As advertised, this Nissan has 70,000…
Universal Studios Passionate Porsche Experience
Did you know Air Cooling What does it mean? No, it's not Linda Richman's Coffee Talkbut a German word meaning "air-cooled soul". This term perfectly describes a community of Porsche enthusiasts that represent "a new perspective in the fragmented landscape of automotive culture". Do you like what you've heard so far? Then book your tickets for Luft 10 on October 5, 2024 on the Universal Studios Backlot in Los Angeles. The event is the product of two enthusiasts: Le Mans champion Patrick Long and Southern California creative director and marketer Howie Edelson. Tired of the same old stuff, they came together to create a Teutonic automotive experience. “Air-cooled Porsche history is our palette, unique venues are our canvas, and you guys create masterpieces,” they say.
