Help with serial # for 1981SC

Hi,

I have a roller and would like to know if it is a ROW car. Here is a pick of the production/VIN tag. Seems to say WPOZZZ... but why does it have a person named as importer? Why is it in English... The car is a left hand drive.

Thanks for the help.

Any way for you to upload another picture that's a bit brighter? It may be easier for our members to read it and share their thoughts.

Thirty years ago, you could import the cars, they would go through a DOT transformation by a private contractor. That's the name of the guy who did the DOT as a private contractor.
About 20 years ago DOT decided anyone could import without DOT certifying the car, but just one car.
