Japanese Auctions and Auction Information

Here is a copy of the translated Japanese auction sheet. Most people can't read Japanese, but with this translated sheet, you should be able to figure out what the excellent Japanese grading sheet tells you. This sheet is from USS Auction. 

Not every car comes from the auction, so not every car will have an auction grading sheet.
