I think it's a Teikoku Small Electric Truck from about 1947/8?

I knew you were going to ask that...
Is it one of those 'TE-*' names you are looking for?  TE-6 perhaps?
I'm not convinced those are actual model names/numbers given by the manufacturer; I think they are some kind of code demanded by the Japanese transport ministry for administrative purposes..

Yes, it is one of those combinations. Not TE though. T is correct as first letter.

I can't find anything at all.
Even Googling in Japanese brings up nothing. Is your picture from a book?
I'll have to guess at what you're looking for, but I'm still not convinced it's a manufacturer-allocated model name...
How about TM-2?

I have it from an Teikoku Elecar brochure that was online, but probably isn't anymore. The designation is close to the two Elecar Tx-n designations we had before, not M, not 2.

Almost there, not F, but 3 is correct: Tx-3
