This is from a general blog. This guy writes about music and motorcycles, and apparently stumbled across a Bellett GT one morning while out on the street. He comments about remembering many sedans when he was small, but not remembering many GTs.
The owner happens by and they talk. He notices the steering wheel is on the left side. The owner states as a question "It is from America?", then adds that the car came from Okinawa, they deduce it was from an American service man.
Then he compliments the Nardi steering wheel which he has in his Mini.
I think it is supposed to be a standard GT with a good black hood (cowl and windshield base, tailgate, and racing stripe paint scheme, vented hood, and fog light front bumper. The trunk hinges are body color, but the roof antenna base and wing mirror backs are chrome instead of black. The grille shows just the GT badge, and no badges on the tailgate at all.
It has a Isuzu Sports sticker below each rear quarter panel vent.
There are a few problems with this.
Belletts weren't sold between the Canadian and Mexican borders.
GTs weren't sold in Canada.
Yellow turn signals might have been illegal until 1972, because that is when VW started using them on the Beetle, and the most popular exterior item for 1971 and earlier Beetles is "European Tail Lights" with yellow turn signals.
Is this an escapee from Northern Europe?
The also tail lights look wrong for a GT. The surface looks flat, without any indent between the white,red, and yellow, and wouldn't the yellow be the same size rectangle as the red? They are trapezoidal!?!?
