I only know a name (which maybe incorrect), a place where it was shown and a year. So further information is welcome. And I'd be happy to award two points for a detailed and correct answer

The mirrors indicate a Japanese connection...

I'm not sure, but guess it's the Gozzy SSK in the background. Could it be that the mystery car is from 1977?

The ceiling indicates that the fair is the Tokio Motor Show. This pic dates from 1959:

The mystery car is from the early 1970s and from Tokyo, but not from the Motorshow

The ceiling looks similar, indeed.
But maybe it's a different event, there are some other strange vehicles in the background...

As I said it is not the Motor Show, but another show which focused on non-road going cars.

Perhaps has some relation with Urba Electric 1981 Quincy Lynn?

Most likely a Japanese special.. From a "known" manufacturer?

It is a Japanese special. As I said I only have a name which is not related to any Japanese OEMs

Japanese special, not related to any known manufacturers.
Is it named after his builder or a company (or both)?

I have no idea. It is a two-letter designation and a number.

It's called TJ 2 and it seems to be a Japanese self-built creation.
