Showa Retro Car Meet
昭和レトロカーミート
A one-day meet in a shopping centre car park at Soga in Chiba, presented by Old-timer magazine. Cars are shown in two classes, which the organizer calls retro and neo-classic, and the 2026 entry list runs from a 1948 car to a 2024 restomod. A swap meet of parts and memorabilia runs alongside.
