Toyota PAR from 1951 ?

I know this bus has the entrance door on the left, which would imply it is right hand drive, but is it by any chance not Japanese?

It's Japanese

Toyota FY

fromwien

Correct! Toyota FY. Please tell me the year and coachbuilder

727

The model was produced from August 1951 to March 1954. If the year you're looking for is 1953 I'm going with this one. Bodywork is a Kariya Y3AR [刈谷車体] (currently Toyota Auto Body).

fromwien

Year 1953 is correct! The coachbuilder not...

727

Is it by Yanase Takahama? The formatting on that page might show the picture description above the picture instead of below, like I usually expected.

727

My phone camera translation confirmed the description in the above picture as Body: Yanase Takahama.

fromwien

Yes, correct! It is Yanase Takahama. A special 'super luxury salon bus' with a guest room in the front compartment, and longue in the rear. Kitchen, small hand wash, Refrigerator, etc..
Interior pictures will follow
