'Waaah why doesn't everybody think my car is as cool as I do! S'not fair.'
Yes it is mildly interesting, in the fact there weren't too many made and this one hasn't been butchered, but there will be geezers with original cars all over the place that all think the same, and do not understand that others do not find their pride and joy as interesting as they do.
Some people are into trains, some are into traction engines, some are into slightly bland Japanese vehicles, get over it.

I thought it was just for pre-'72 stuff! Though I've seen newer than that at BH.
Maybe my '75 Caddy IS eligible after all!

I don't think anyone here really can see what I am getting at. I see 66, 67 68 Mustangs all the time, they are common as crap, same applies to many USA cars, Common common.Yawn , Yawn , Yawn, too Many around and they all look alike, I know because I have had them and when looking at so so many on ebay I almost fall asleep.Now go find another mid 70's TE Model Toyota Sprinter Coupe and to make it even harder a really MINT ONE. There are other Jappa Cars around that are RARE AS too.I don't know of any 66 Mustang that I could say, WOW that is RARE ! URR DAH !

Chris Chris Chris, while I agree with what you have said here I have to point out that if you go to any Hot rod, Mustang, Ford or whatever (apart from Jap) you generaly see a bunch of middle aged guys all dressed in black jeans and tee shirts sporting some car logo or picture also all thinking there cool lol. Mind you they dont have there but cracks showing (most of the time) And interestingly have been sporting this fashion since at least the 60s.

the beach hop is about the 50s and 60s and the cars are evocative of those decades.Nobody associates jap cars with that era.The only time 70s jappas are likely to be allowed to participate in the Beach hop is if they have a demolition derby

You have it all wrong. Desirable cars have outstanding features, were ahead of their time or had a enviable racing pedigree.
Your is a Corolla that Toyota didn't bother to produce many of.

hahaha i reckon you should just go mate, hide around some corner and when theres a break in the traffic just pull out and cruize the night away,and then speed of into the night like batman,,,,,

wow i cant believe you think that its discrimination to not let a small efficient japanese car from the 70s into a festival ALL about 1950s american big engine cars AND THE CULTURE FROM THAT ERA
if you have ever been to beach hop you will notice an abundance of 1950s era music and memorabilia , how many people do you think cruised around in their 1970s toyotas listening to that music compared to in an old belair!
why cant people respect that everyone has their own place to meet old american cars and hot rods have beach hop riced out jappashave every mcdonalds carpark every made huge powerful 4wds have ponsonby cul de sacs and you have a laptop in a tree house out the back of your house im guessing
finally to pull apart your story the toyota museum isnt in tokyo its actually nearly 5 hours away near osaka
secondly if you were a car dealer turning over $10,000,000 of cars per year i doubt you would live in a crappy cookie cutter house like that
a 1976 toyota in mint condition is like a 65 year old virgin, just because shes mint doesnt mean shes desirable
i hope you get in because with all the shit you talk and all the people im sure you will piss off your perfect car is sure to get a dent or two then it will be worth all of $1200

I reckon the car is a possible entry. just not allowed to use the language on here about where I think he should enter it. may require some silicon though. & I dont mean tyre shine!

the beach hop is for american cars, therefore a japanese one is not eligible,by the same token a 50 year old yank tank would not be welcomed at the 4's and rotary shows.It has nothing to do with the quality or rarity,but has everything to do with eligibility.
