ISUZU BELLETT

IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS AND DATES

This information allows the approximate dating of a Bellett sedan or GT by the chassis number and gives an indication of what engine should be in the car. The engine numbers are not directly related to the chasis number so this table gives the starting engine number for each model change.

Bellett model identification

Here's a simple method to identify the approximate year of manufacture of an Isuzu Bellett.  The easiest indicators are the front and rear light assemblies, although in the case of the front lights, it is a guide only, as it is a simple matter to fit any model lights to a Bellett, as the front sheetmetal is virtually the same in all models.

(Under construction)

1964-1965

Twin headlights with chromed steel grille.

Rear tail lights are "teardrop" shape

Picture soon

1966-1967 Twin headlights with  alloy grille.

"Square" taillights

1968-1969 Twin headlights with expanded mesh behind stainless horizontal bars. GT shown is same a sedan, except  for GT badge.
  The '68/'69 GT models have three separate plastic lamps in a similar surround to the sedan type, shown above the orange  GT pictured. Some GT's may have sedan lamps fitted, as they easier to obtain.
