I know some of you are going to peak in thinking you'll find the website in english, but I'm sorry to say it's only an idea at the moment.

http://www.the30sstyle.com

I've been peaking around that website every so often, reading threads mentioning it, but one thing that always comes up is the failure to be able to read it in english.
I was thinking...if someone here (or elsewhere) who knows fluent Japanese and English would be willing to work with the proprietor of the website in creating an english version of it? I think it would help A LOT if those of us who speak and read in english could read what the website has to say.

What do you think folks? Anyone out there up for the challenge?

It is a wonderful website and I would love to see an English Translation!

Thanks for that, some great images on there.

Would be nice to see it in the English language but doubtful that will happen.

Bump.
The site has a lot of reference images for a classic look.

Japanese connaisseurs often don't want their info available outside the home country. Who knows but there may be some self-consciousness about being so obsessive about another culture. They might just rather they didn't have to explain it to outsiders.

You can get this in English (sort of) pretty easily. Copy the web address into a Google search. The site will be the first result. Click on "translate this page". Just flipping through it, I was able to read and understand most of it.

You're welcome. I only wish it worked a bit better that it does.

Some translations, though, are pretty fun:

"The attitude of the neck and back and measuring equipment for use at the time of measurement equipment."
