IT WAS BEAUTIFUL. RHD, Japanese plates, owner from Japan, this was the real deal. The owner and his navigator, who happens to be his daughter, are taking part in !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! This race/rally happens to start in downtown Kirkwood, MO which is only minutes from my house.

Cool, I just got a look at this 432R in Japan. Man the engine in that thing is beautiful. I wonder if this guy still has the original wheels, they are super rare.

Wheels weren’t original, unfortunately. He popped the hood for me and DAMN I wasn’t expecting that. Absolutely beautiful engine. I showed him a pic of my Z and the guy loved it! Haha

It was! Real 432 in the flesh. The owner was extremely nice and barely spoke any English because he was from Japan, but he popped the hood and pulled the throttle linkage a hand full of times so I could hear it roar. The engine and triple Mikuni carbs were gorgeous. I showed the guy a pic of my 240 and he gave me a thumbs up! Haha
