New Magazine for Owners of Classic Japanese Cars

Bill Fant wrote on the Bluebirds List on April 21: "The premiere issue of Japanese Nostalgic Car arrived today, and it's
pretty impressive for a new magazine. Nissan features include a multi-page cover story on the Hiraishi brothers' 510 and Z
and the first part of a Skyline history.

As we've seen before, these things usually die in the "big idea" stage before ink ever hits paper. A 10 buck subscription
might help keep them around for a while".

I agree with Bill and I have paid my subscription. Let's help them out. Please visit their site:
