SEMA: Classic Skyline

The classic Skyline GT-R is not the best looking car, with a mishmash of late 60’s American and European Styling forged in Japan. But even so, they are super cool. This car at SEMA was tucked away between South Hall and Central Hall, but it was always drawing a crowd. I have always liked them because they are different and like many of the classics I have owned over the years, you’re not likely to run into one at your local car show. Enjoy the JDM goodness of this classic “GT-R Clone” in the photos below.
