For fans of old cars, not only are used cars becoming harder to find, but there are fewer and fewer in good condition, which is not a good thing.

While there are many customization cultures that Japan can be proud of, one car culture that has grown remarkably is the world of "Itasha" cars. In recent years, the attention and number of such events have been increasing, and many small-scale events are held throughout the country. In addition, the annual Odaiba event attracts as many as 1,000 Itasha cars, creating a great deal of excitement. Mr. "Totomofu", who created a Chevrolet C6 "Corvette" to the "Itasha" specifications, is one such person who has fallen in love with the world of "Itasha".

Nissan's 3rd generation C10 Skyline, commonly known as "Hakosuka” is such a popular car that it is no exaggeration to say that every old car enthusiast yearns for one.

The rear roof section could be detached to enjoy the open-air environment. Mr. "Ryou" welcomed such a unique model as his first car.

The Toyota Hiace is used as a work partner for a wide range of professionals, and the range of customization that can be expanded to meet the needs of professionals and the tastes of owners is so diverse as to be almost limitless.

The main feature of the Honda CR-X Del Sol is its retractable hard top. This was Honda's answer to the need to combine the fun of open-air motoring with the weather resistance of a coupe.
