Rocky auto's junkyard out back

Check out these old rusty cars behind Rocky Auto shop in Japan.

I'de be interested in the story behind the left hand drive orange 240z

and how it got there. Obviously US military but why bother to import it

there and leave it to rust. It was obviously well taken care of in the past.

Do some servicemen import classic cars to Japan to make a quick buck?

There are probably a couple of aussies drooling over the Kenmeri 73 C110 skyline coupe that stays in the background. It doesn't come completly in view, just a couple of teasers at 1:40 in front of the black 280zx with gold bonnet and again at 3:24 next to the red 510.

When I was a kid, a friends father had one. Can't remember if it was a GT, probably not. Most people think they are ugly, but I still like the coupe.

Indeed strange to import a Z to Japan. A bit like importing a Chevy from the UK or Australia back to the US and then leave it there when you go back home. It looks like it might be the best 240Z on the lot.
