Yup, that's my guess Bruce. I have now heard of two people exporting these cars out of the country. Apparently there is a healthy profit to be made.

Where on earth would people be shipping these cars to? Certainly not America or Japan. I know that the Japanese ship to Russia or Southeast Asia and make huge profits but these are 10 year old cars, not 30 year old cars like yours.

I'll bet he sold it off to someone who happened by with a wad of cash. Like they say, money talks . . . . .

One was back to Japan, the other to Kuwait.

They are still worth a pretty penny in Japan compared to Australia!
