Yes, FWIW - GM has been building/assembling cars in Port Elizabeth, ZA since 1925

I had never seen one of these before - an interesting mix of Holden HQ (1971 on) with a 1970 (?) Chevelle nose on it. The only odd ZA GM car I have seen in NZ was a Viva HC badged as a Chevrolet and powered by a 4 cylinder (ca.150 cubic inch) Chevy 2 engine.

From the 1960's Holdens were exported around the world, even a few left hand drives. Chev Kommandos were a standard HQ Holden with a grille and trim unique to ZA. I believe they were exported from Australia. According to this site HQ Holdens were sold as AQ Kommandos from 1973-75. HQ Statesmans were sold as AQ De Villes and Constantias. HQ utes were also sold as El Caminos. Supprisingly earlier model Holden Monaro coupes were sold as Holdens and Chevrolet SSs in ZA at the same time.
