WHOAH!

Hold the phone!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isuzu_Bellett

It looks like someone has tidied up Wikipedia's Isuzu Bellett entry CONSIDERABLY.

I'm not sure who did this and I know there is plenty of derision for the old "Rumourpedia", but I'm much happier to see something that looks to be more comprehensive and seems to be accurate enough, not that I've cross-checked it.

The author has added sections for the Bellett B as well as the Wasp...

Needless to say, PR91's Wasp appears there!

Good job, whoever wrote this!

it's closer to being correct, but there's still holes in it.
no mention of the G150 Wasp, Wasp panel van and the 1500 coupe are 3 i found with just a quick read.
external links at the bottom include bellett.net, so someone is on the ball.

Antus put the link to Bellett.net there when we launched the forum in the hope that some Wikipedia-searching Bellett enthusiasts would rock up and see us and click the link.

Yeah it's not perfect, but it's better than what was there!
