Wouda thunk it? Car's condition looks better in the pic, but just the same...
Maybe I should offer to set the points?

1964 original unrestored Impala in Tokyo?

I had a ‘64 Impala SS for a little while, 283/Powerglide. I sold it when I realized it had a bad patch job on the rusting X-frame, I was afraid it might break in half…
Go for it! If I recall correctly, the dwell angle is 30 degrees, timing is 4 degrees BTDC, and idle speed is 600 RPM in D.
The right hand drive is blowing my mind. And the clean streets...
Locate the nearest GM / Chevrolet dealership.
Also, look up local indies.

283 with Powerglide I bet.
That fender emblem looks like the 409...
Was at a car show in Topeka, KS on Saturday held at the Air National Guard Museum at Forbes Field. I had driven up to visit my brother who lives just outside KC. Several Impala's were represented, but this '67 GTO caught my eye. As a youngster, the neighbor across the street had one.
Took the second picture at the Combat Air Museum of a F-14 showing the GE Vulcan cannon. Thought of @Astro14 when looking at it. The museum is crammed with displays in a couple of hangars. This place you have to squeeze through displays and try to keep from bumping your head as you moved under wings/fuselages to get to whatever was hiding behind it. If ever in Topeka...

Awesome! I know Marcell “Opus” Padilla, whose name is inscribed on the canopy. Marcell was possessed of a large proboscis. Bloom County was a popular cartoon at the time.
I loved the gun. Sounds funny, but shooting the gun, especially air to air, was a ton of fun. Marksmanship is marksmanship, whether 9mm or 20mm.
Cheers!

My first car was a red 67 GTO convertible....a bit of a boat though..
don't worry the drive shaft would have held it together
Wifey and I are in Japan. It's real; just outside our hotel in Haneda. Blew my mind, to say the least.
So totally.
I saw an early ('63?) Plymouth Valiant in Budapest in the early '90's and yes....
From what I saw, Chryco was the early bird into Europe
