Toyota?
locked for You Arunas
You got the manufacturer but I have also name of the car
and I need to know why was this car build
-
I remember reading years ago that Toyota held some kind of design contest among its employees where they would come up with crazy ideas and build mock-ups. I guess this could come from one of those contests? late 80s or early 90s?

You are on the right track
It has its own name
locked for You to find the answer

Sorry, I have to ask: Did this image come from somewhere on the internet? Or is it a scan/image that you own on your computer? I have searched high and low for it the last couple of days, and while I have been able to find images of many other vehicles from these design contests ("Idea Olympics", as they were apparently called), I have not been able to locate this specific vehicle. If you tell me it's somewhere out there on the web, I will keep trying, but otherwise I think I must give up. I know I recognize this photograph and I must have seen it in a print magazine years ago, but unless it's on the internet I have zero chance of finding it now. Thanks.

so yes this is a scan
i didn't search it on the web
I will keep it locked for You for a few days
