I had an A51 as my first car.
The differences between it and a GA were
-front quarter windows
-switchable park lights
-fully imported from Japan
-there were a couple of other things that I forget now!

Options were a 3speed on the tree, but I've never seen one in the flesh. I've got the original brochures and magazine articles at home somewhere.

which ones had the chrome arms on the heater/ demister/ vent controls.
I think I had one once, but if it was, was converted to GB headlights and grill.....

all the ones we got did, GB was the first twin headlamp car here (Galant) ,GA were all square , A51 and A52 (which arnt GA's orGB's) were square here. Japan had different stuff to as as did USA etc. Most markets had different spec cars and the workshop manuals can be confusing at times as they show Jap spec in the pickies

I see you guys posting "A51 and A52" not to sound like a dummy but are you guys refering to the stamp in the firewall? I just got my colt, or galant, atleast i was told it was a galant, and i want to learn more about my car. And so far, Im having a really hard time finding parts here in california!
