dsl ![]() | US was main target market from Jan 75 until May 76 UK (and Europe?) launch, so production for first year and a bit was broadly US spec. If other markets got them during this period (CDN??, J?? etc) it would have been on basis they accepted similar specs. So ex-US is a valid alternative. | 2019-07-25 00:35 | ||
Exiv96 ![]() | I don't know if there was a genuine "ROC spec" TR7, but this one looks like an imported US model. | 2019-07-25 00:19 | ||
| (inactive user) | @the sad biker, regarding of a manufacturer producing a certain model or not, rebranding/rebadging stuff is still valid and is widely used on IMCDb. I suggest keeping it as Tailung 50. -- Last edit: 2019-07-25 00:34:12 |

the sad biker ![]() | Tailung bought the rights and tooling for 60-100cc models when Bridgestone ceased manufacture in 1970-71, that's a Bridgestone engine in an "updated" chassis, the 100S & SS were known as Antelope. There was a 90cc Eros and a 110cc Eagle. |

s13a ![]() | @the sad biker Possibly another Tailung (lincese-built Bridgestone) ? http://mikeintaipei.blogspot.com/2012/03/ i.e. similar lettering on the fuel tank? -- Last edit: 2019-07-24 20:21:30 |
2019-07-24 20:06 | ||
the sad biker ![]() | I can't find any info of Tailung producing any vehicle under their own name (admittedly searching in the wrong language), just references to Suzuki and the latter Rockford Bridgestones. Perhaps one of our Mandarin correspondents might have more success? -- Last edit: 2019-07-24 19:47:53 |

Gamer ![]() | Did you know China (the People's Republic of) gets both the European Passat and the NMS? | 2019-07-24 17:46 | ||
dsl ![]() | That must have been confusing in Taiwanese Ford dealers - imported US Granadas alongside local-build Euro Granadas. | 2019-07-24 16:19 | ||
s13a ![]() | Oh, I thought that was something new to me -- Last edit: 2019-07-24 16:16:19 |

dsl ![]() | No - just that WC info can be scrambled. The listing is an appendix with separate paragraphs for each company's overseas assemblies, with an alphabetical list by country within each paragraph which also says which models were involved. Multinationals like Ford have separate paragraphs for Ford USA, Ford GB, Ford D. The info for Cortina, Granada and Escort assembly in Taiwan has been wrongly entered under USA overseas section when it should be under GB overseas. (And yes it is the Euro Granada, not the US range). -- Last edit: 2019-07-24 16:56:16 |
2019-07-24 16:00 | ||
s13a ![]() | Wait, so the Cortina, Granada (assuming you mean the Euro Granada, not the American Granada) and Escort were of US origin for Taiwan?? |
2019-07-24 15:50 | ||
dsl ![]() | Not the Okinawa Capri. But I may have been thinking of this one in Thailand (well the countries have similar names and are both a long way away ) but it doesn't have the other info I thought came with it.World Cars info on Taiwan Ford builds is wobbly - nothing listed in early 70s then in 1975 (I have gaps in the collection) Ford USA were building Cortina, Granada and Escort. Ford UK and D have separate lists in several countries but nothing Taiwan mentioned. Previous experience of these WC assembly listings suggests they can be 2-3 years old when printed (so 1975 probably means actual 1972/73). So I've got nothing at the moment to suggest Taiwan built 1970-ish Capri, only a dodgy half-memory of something which may or may not be lurking in the collection. |

s13a ![]() | The headlight position (and the headlight itself) seems to be different from Suzuki's original version as well, so maybe it should be called Tailung instead. -- Last edit: 2019-07-24 15:20:56 |
2019-07-24 15:20 | ||
| (inactive user) | Do you think it should be Tailung 50 without the Suzuki branding? No mention of it on the bike. ![]() |
2019-07-24 15:10 | ||
Gag Halfrunt ![]() | Perhaps it was this Capri in Okinawa. /vehicle.php?id=1261740 |

s13a ![]() | I went through all the movies that contained Yue Loong cars (safe guess, as it was the most common car in Taiwan at that time), but I didn't see a Capri entry in any of those movies. Was it really in Taiwan? | 2019-07-24 14:49 | ||
the sad biker ![]() | Updated as such. |
2019-07-24 14:23 | ||
dsl ![]() | No sign of it using "Taiwan". May have been discussed with different wording - eg "local build" or whatever. Hazy memory is that despite no mention in most sources there was probably some Capri build in low numbers, possibly using parts from Germany alongside the small quantity of 26M [P7b] assembly. But only a fuzzy recollection, not solid. | 2019-07-24 14:20 | ||
3asv6 ![]() | 山田牌 is the manufacturer name but I can't confirm this manufacturer still exists or not at 2019. I can't find any matches from "山田牌"... |

s13a ![]() | @3asv6, anything in your book about this bus? | 2019-07-24 13:00 | ||
| (inactive user) | That's a Taiwanese 農地搬運車 (farmland car) or 農用搬運車 (agricultural truck), the manufacturer name is probably written on it, for who knows Mandarin. | 2019-07-24 11:51 | ||
mike962 ![]() | Custom Made ? they do have a home build look | 2019-07-24 11:36 | ||
| (inactive user) | @the sad biker - Suzuki Landie 50 with a different name https://www.bikepics.com/pics/2010/06/28/bikepics-2007744-984.jpg |

the sad biker ![]() | https://goods.ruten.com.tw/item/show?21827287246560 BS Tailung were (are still?) a Taiwanese motorcycle manufacturer, they appear to have a licencing agreement with Suzuki, my opinion is this is a Suzuki [insert model name] assembled by BS Tailung. Some local knowledge needed. |

tore-40 ![]() | @3asv6; Same livery but totally different bodies. Are the buses (subject vehicle and the one in your book) based on the same model, only seperated by production years? | 2019-07-24 09:45 | ||

dsl ![]() | First style black wheel centre trim used from Jan 1975 launch (for export only until UK sales started in May 76) until a change to a silver-grey full cover in March 77. Black rear panel from launch until Jan 78. The huge boot lettering and the one-light winking feature are not recognised UK spec. | 2019-07-23 23:22 | ||

dsl ![]() | I am fairly sure we had a Taiwan Capri a few months ago with some discussion about possible local build. But as there is no Capri now with a Made-for-RC tag, I can't retrieve it to check what was said ..... | 2019-07-23 22:55 | ||
