Most 'export' cars I see were ordered by US Servicemen from overseas for pick up when they returned home. When did they stop? 71? 72? My dad ordered a 73 new while in Turkey, picked it up new in New Jersey, it didn't have a tag...

When new, it was apparently a gift from Chrysler to the CEO of British Steel. It did not have one of these tags, but a blue decal in the forward vertical part of the drivers's door shut. Back then I owned an export build 72 RR/GTX which was sold to USAF serviceman stationed in Germany. It also didn't have the metal 'export' tag, although it did have an additional tag issued by the German DMV.

Andy was his name. He had a couple RHD US A bodies (brought back from the UK) from memory at one point in time.
