WOW!! Never mind that I don't speak Japanese. The photos tell it all. What's more, Google can translate ;D

I noticed the steering wheel is on the left side in the photos. That's interesting...the Japanese drive on the same side of the street as do the British and the Australians. Did AMC build Eagles for these countries with the steering wheel on the right side? :eagle:

Air-conditioning is so cool!
