Didn't we just do this?  1947 Ohta PE, with a tiny drop of Sunbeam inspiration.

No, we had the Ohta PF

I posted this because the PE is an almost entirely unknown car which was never actually in production.
I believe this is the only picture of it anywhere; how on earth did you find it?
It's not from 1947 though so I'll lock it for you to look into again and see if you can give the correct date for your point.
