From Dave Newell:


<will send pix of Japanese Holden ads & 
literature 61-64 tonight. Holden had begun exports in the Pacific rim area in 
the late 1950s (give me time and I can probably find the dates & locations). I 
believe by '64 they had even shipped some cars to India. The plate on this '64 
definitely states Taiyo as being Chevrolet & Holden distributors. 

That's great...thanks to Carl for the metric answer. I hadn't researched it and 
was wondering if cars sold there had metric speedos that early. But most of the 
specs in Japanese Chevy brochures were always in metric...the '64 Vair was 
listed at 2688 cc.
