Where can I see a 2000GT?
I'm in the L.A. area and would love to see a 2000GT in person. Is there an event or a museum/collection that is viewable to the public now or in the near future?

i believe you can see a 2000GT at the petersen museum in LA. There is also a 2000GT at the corporate headquarters in Torrence. If you can get to South Florida I can show you one. Suggest you get a copy of Shin Yoshikowa's book that will give you all the answers.

The Toyota Museum in Torrance has 3 cars. One or two might be in for maintenance. I think one is going through a complete overhaul to bring it back to it's past glory, when it belonged to 60's model Twiggy.
The Toyota Automobile Museum is Private but open to tours by appointment.
The Petersen has one, but I think it's kept tucked away most of the time (in their over stock, the part of the collection that is hidden from prying eyes most of the time).
Petersen Automotive Museum, 6060 Wilshire Blvd.(at Fairfax,) Los Angeles, CA 90036

There was one at the Blackhawk Museum. Not sure if it's still there.
Blackhawk Automotive Museum, 3700 Blackhawk Plaza Circle Danville, CA 94506

Coming up on May 13th is the All Toyotafest in Long Beach, CA. Plans are for Toyota to bring out their trailer with several different cars, hopefully a 2000GT will be among them. If I learn more I'll post it here.

i was able to meet Dave Jordan and Scooter Patrick as well as see their cars last year at the Monterey Historic Automobile Races held at Laguna Seca
i know a few Toyotafest people were there to support the event too.
thinking they might bring them out again this year.... not sure about the F1 this year though.. but hehehe... they had it last year and it brought goosebumps hearing that thing rev around 19K...
