Anything to do with the Subaru 360?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

Did you take the picture from a book by Shizuo Takashima?

Can the puzzle car be found online ?

Carnut

I did try but was unable to find it.
I'd be surprised if it's not online somewhere but probably on a Japanese site.

Is the owner/builder's name Jiang or something similar? (A Chinese name in 1950s Japan?)

I've managed to find the page on this vehicle, but approximately 75% of the Japanese text has been rendered illegible. Below are the humorous results of three separate attempts to translate the text. Earlier attempts produced the terms "Rhine" and "Rheingau" (you mentioned the name sounding German), but this is missing from the later, presumably more thorough translations.

I'm still working on it!

Tried a new method--did not improve the situation.  :o

Sorry, for some reason your post was never highlighted as a new one so I hadn't read it.
Ignore all that!  That's not his name and none of it can be said to be anything to do with this car!
