About the GVJCI Car Show
Gardena once had a thriving car culture with people having not only the well-known muscle cars, such as the Ford Mustangs, Chevrolet Camaros, Dodge Challengers, Chrysler, and modified foreign makes such as the Datsun 510s/240zs and Toyota Celicas. With a mix of today’s versions of these cars and others, we would like to bring back fond memories of yesteryear and show how this car culture continues today.
In addition to the cars, we also have competitive and open class Pinewood Derby races, free games for the kids, an indoor vendor area and food trucks (Okamoto Kitchen and Handel's Homemade Ice Cream).
