Not that..

prototype of model SD made in June 1949 at Kanto Electric Motor Works

You're on the right track but it's not an SD and wasn't made in 1949; it was however made by Kanto Electric Motor Works.
So I'll lock it for you until your next reply to see if you can come up with the right model, its full name and when it was built.

I think it's time to unlock this puzzle now as it's due to move up to the Pro's shortly if it's not solved within the next few days...

It is, yes!
I don't think there are any pictures of it on the Internet at all and this is the only picture of it I've ever seen.
Only 3 prototypes were built before the project was abandoned due to the demand for chassis for production cars.
Well done.
