I hate to jump in the middle but I feel the need to defend my territory. It
probably depends on where you live. I think the vast majority of 60's and
70's era Japanese cars have gone by the wayside because of rust. Here in
the west, where the roads are generally not salted, the cars give long
reliable service. Japanese cars of the 70's were not well protected against
rust anyway and the salted winter roads just kill them, even though the
running gear etc. would contiue to run on. As far as seeing them on the
road, I see one everyday and have for the last ten years (see .sig)...

Obligatory LBC content: Were Mk II 2000/2500's ever imported into the US?
How about Herald 13/60's? Wishing we were blessed with more Triumph sedans...
