Trucks at the Japanese Classic Car in Long Beach

Why does a Mazda RX7 have "Trrapln" for a license plate? Any guesses?

A Terraplane was a Hudson... so this has me wondering

lots of motorcycles and a couple race cars at the Japanese Classic Car Show in Long Beach

Dodge/Mistubishi Colt... the car with a horse on it that isn't a Ford

rusty but cool, and has a interesting blank off plate to cover the side mirror

ram air system... for a motorcycle, why would one need a scoop?

From the knowledgeable comments today:

 the scoop directs air to the rear and the center cylinder for more even cooling. The center cylinder gets much hotter on a triple than the outer ones. Its actually a very good idea

Garage Company? Great gas tank paint job
