The 7/26 NY Times had a neat article with pictures about collecting 1960's
Japanese cars and how popular they are.
They had some good pictures and even a price guide of the various models.
The price of a Toyota 2000GT is sure to go up after this article.....
Unfortunately, my N600 isn't referred to in good terms.
I have the first part of the article at work and can e-mail to anyone who
is interested.
Here's the 2nd part of the article.
