Hi all From Russia with love))))

Post by puhol »

Hello. I'm live in Russia, Vladivostok. And i have Isuzu Bellett 1972 pr50. Engine G161. (not Sport). I have not found the same cars in Russia. Therefore with spare parts very difficultly, the air filter searched more month))) Repair still is necessary, so do not judge strictly. Will be very useful scaned manuals.

Wow Puhol what a very cool set of wheels you have!!!! Welcome to the forum.

Would love to know some history on how your car washed up on the shores of Zolotoy Rog Bay, was it a lost cargo ship??? It looks as though it is right hand drive from the photos. I think we will definitely need a few more photos I can't get enough of these two door sedans :lol:

How cool is that! Cheers for posting pics puhol it's always good to see Belletts in other countries, especially ones that they were never delivered to from the factory.

Do you have any history on the car? When did it get to Russia? Is it straight from Japan?

Thanks for sharing puhol!! Much appreciated!

Hi again.
A little history.
The car has been brought to Vladivostok in 1983. That was a period of reorganisation in the USSR and bringing cars from abroad was allowed. As Vladivostok is close to Japan, people began to deliver original Japanese cars from its local market (with the right steering wheel). In such a way Bellett appeared at the first owner. And it kept rolling on our city waste till 2008. But as a result the car passed in the inheritance to his daughter and she decided to junk it. Despite the low price nobody from our club "Retromania" wanted to buy it. In a result, after long thinkings, I, 20 years old man, became the owner of very rare car.
I am a member of the Russian club "Retromania”, almost all our participants have rare right-hand Japanese car. I invite to visit: http://forums.drom.ru/retro/

Great to see you here, with a most unusual model. We just never know where Belletts are going to turn up next! Please post parts wants on here as someone should be able to help. Some parts are still available in Japan.
Keep us updated - at least Belletts are fairly easy to fix!
Cheers, Matt.
