With all the news of the Tokyo Motor Show last week, we thought we’d start a contest to see who can recognize this concept (Hint: It was never built). The winner will receive a Wonda Choro-Q Hakosuka Skyline GT-R (sans coffee) from our outing to Japan last spring. By the way, we still have the Import Bible T-shirt Contest going on until November 12.
UPDATE: New contest rules apply, so send your answers to the feedback address at the very bottom of the page (literally, the very bottom, below the comments) with the subject “JNC CONTEST” and we’ll pick a winner out of all the correct answers at random. Contest ends 11:59 Pacific Time Nov 5.
Another photo after the jump.
This is a 1966 Datsun/Nissan Concept
The best I can come up with is a Nissan Concept from circa 1966.
My brain says Mazda concept from the mid 60’s. That’s all I got.
Ooh! Ooh! Pick me! Pick me!!
*puts hand up*
Mazda RX concept.
I haven’t the foggiest idea,but man is it cool! 😀
Ben- where do we send the answer( if we figure it out!)
I have emailed you thru the feedback email
your all wrong, its obviously the Jetsons car. it should fold into a suitcase and everthing
Haha, It looks like it cuts through the air like…? Well, like something. 🙂
Cuts through the air like an axe through cheese..(not a hint to its identity btw)
I have no idea, but I have to agree with the few above. For some reason it says Mazda to me.
I’ll say it’s a 1966 Toyota concept car?
^^^ E-mail sent
original Hyundai Excel concept
I stick to Moises answer. But I think I see a roadster/fairlady in the pics it has behind it? must be nissan then.
I’m putting in my bid= I’m saying it the first “Z” or “Fairlady” car, kinda Elc hybrid version. If you scope the pic’s on the wall the on the far right. The top and the bottom pic’s look like the concept drawings of the 64 Datsun 1500
( i love the head lights)
I was waiting for someone to see the three pictures on the side. It’s a little hard to see them on my monitor, I was hoping someone would give them away!
Is it maybe the first 270X concept?
No, no, no… this was the result of reverse-engineering a crashed UFO that was found in Japan in the early 60’s.
…or maybe Ultraman’s daily driver?
It looks so similar to the ’60s Citroen DS.. i know not japanese!!
@ Toyotageek- I thought UFO’s only landed in New Mexico!
@ bert – you haven’t been watching old Japanese B-movies, uh, I mean documentaries, have you. LOL
Wow,what a Classic-Concept,I think the front black line(grill) similar to the 240Z,lamps(front),looks like the KPGC10 Skyline(the Hakosuka) and the 240 alike and the back looks like a…Corvette Split Window Type/a Thunderbird?And those concept designs look alike the Ford Thunderbirds,nice.
Soooooooooo……… what’re the results? 🙂
