    I believe that's Leons car. Yes he did the theme song for the D1 series in his band '8 Ball'. 7th Heaven is a club they used to play in and we used go to on Fridays and Saturdays out by gate 2 street behind Kadena Air Base. Good times!! I have pics of this car from way back when!

    Yeah the abandoned car series would be a banger… each car you find has its own story/history. You might even find another treasure to restore. 💯

    Bro, that mini series idea is cool af. Definitely should give it more thought!
    Also, that whole thing with the owner of the cars and okachan going to drive in okinawa is super wholesome!

    All of the early car videos on my channel are from Okinawa.
    My JZX90 was very well know until I took it off the island. 2jzgte swapped, V160, 88mm Turbo, fully caged, All the Defi Gauges, Hyper Green with Large Flake in the paint. Hood, Fenders done and Cut then pulled quarters wide body.
    Setup for Drag racing.
    I used to live Next to Chi-Chis strip club.
    Have you taken him to Nago Yet?
    The back roads past Okuma, the Mountain Roads are Amazing!
    The amount of amazing cars rotting away on Okinawa are Endless.

    I remember being stationed in Okinawa and I saw that car in that exact same spot it is now back in 2014, my buddies randomly saw it on a drive somewhere around the island. I have a picture on my Instagram but I feel like the car was facing the other way. I miss it!

    I’d be really cool to see drivers of some of our favorite hot version / video option drive together one last time, it seems the only time you see old school folks come together when someone has passed. You never know when someone you’ve driven with will be gone. It’d be great to see more reunion videos from older people driving

    I missed when you came through American village at the car meet. That S15 & 180 are in my old neighborhood. The owner is a pretty famous musician, who lost his license, and parked his cars. Moved on with intent to get back to them someday…

  • @nickknee3515
    @nickknee3515 2 роки тому

    8:17 LMFAO🤣😂🤣😂 There's definitely some unique rust over there. I live in the states where we use salt in the winter and I've seen pickups cruising down the road looking like they're gonna split in half at the next bump but, down over there where the salt air just rots a car sitting in one place, just boggles my mind.
    I also love that the theme song for D1GP that you showed sounds so much like Back in the Village from Iron Maiden, so cool. That guy is cool.

    Garage Kitty rocks out a bit to 180-guy's theme music there. She's very picky. :) Also it's good to see Jason back on Okinawa, and als I'd been hoping you'd go check that place out for a while. Also I think he's responsible for me finding your channel, pretty sure I was checking out Capt26 just before UA-cam started showing me like everyone doing car content in Japan, ...and my Da was stationed on Okinawa once upon a time and told me a bit about it, so I kinda started there.
    Anyway, cool to see Okinawa through your eyes and all. Still seems a really cool scene, rust and all.

  • @Burley_Bert
    @Burley_Bert 2 роки тому

    If I am not mistaken this car was in a magazine for import tuners around 2003 give or take a few. I can't remember the feature but it was one of the major magazines in the U.S. (no luck finding pics). My love for 180s is on fire!

  • @LNRRidez

    Sammit!!! You got an awesome idea to make this week long serie and check the abandoned cars of Okinawa!!
    Winter is probably the best time since all the vegetation may recede and it may be possible to see even more!
    I'd definitely be down for participating in such a series once I return/move to Japan!! Never been to Okinawa yet...

    What you need to understsnd is that those builds were/are made for a specific person hence the cars has served their purpose as they are too epic for anyone else other than the first owner to enjoy correctly, I believe they are parked where they belong in that humble manner.
