The manufacturer is still active. Is that still as a manufacturer of cars and motor vehicles?

As we are running out of current manufacturers, I took a long look at my Japanese sources and archives.

I cannot duplicate the puzzle photo, but is it possible that this is an Isuzu PA 10 "Luxury Car"? I find absolutely nothing else on the car, just this photo.

One point awarded to Bill Murray for the correct answer.

Here is the first image I found of this strange car. Now we have collected three.

sixtee5cuda · « **Reply #23 on:** September 10, 2020, 07:02:51 AM »

And here is a 4th image. Quite small, not sure if it is a picture or a sketch of the PA10:

There is a scale model of this car
