Postwar mini vehicles are not in my area of research but............

I looks to me like a Japanese mini truck of the 1945-1959 era.
Probably not a major manufacturer.

Maybe that will give someone else a way to go.

Please do not lock, as I really have no idea beyond my original comment.
Cheers
Bill

You are right there Bill, It's a Japanese min-truck.  I don't know exactly when it dates from but I would have guessed about 1956.

It's Paddle 360 (1960), produced by Paddle Jidosha Kogyo.

In one japanese blog I found his data: 359 cc, 15 hp, max speed 60 km/h.

Yes, a Japanese 'Kei' truck.
One vehicle you should definitely not go up Shit Creek without...
