With apologies for the tiny photo, but if you can squint and tell me the make and model name, your reward is one whole AP point

Good try but a lot more obscure than that...

Is the manufacturer better recognized in the aviation arena?

I'm not totally sure of this company's other activities at the time but I'm fairly sure aviation was not among them

The more you learn, the more you realise how little you know.

Neither Prince nor Hino.
It's considerably more obscure...

If the company has no aviation connection does it have a motor cycle connection?

Again I'm not 100% sure of all this company's activities at the time; but if there was a motor cycle connection I'm not aware of it

Yes it is!
Dating from 1955
Idemitsu is of course better known for its oils

Why did Idemitsu make this car? Were they thinking about starting up their own car factory?
Is this the only road car they ever made? Where was the car made in Japan?

I'm afrad I only have a Japanese-language clipping for this car. Quite a few prototypes were made around this period (as the 'K' class was formed) so I'd guess it was one of those
