The only wartime Japanese military vehicle that had a 100 % Japanese native design.

This one is bugging me. It's undoubtedly some sort of Japanese roadster from the pre-war era, but apparently the only Japanese brands making cars during this time were Toyoda (later Toyota), Datsun, and Isuzu. Although information about 1930s Japanese cars is almost as sparse as the cars themselves, none of the models that I've found information on look like this one.

The fact that early Japanese cars were based directly on foreign cars (the Toyoda AA sedan was just a reverse-engineered Chrysler Airflow, and Isuzu got its start building British Wolseleys under license), it could be originally based on a European roadster of some type, further confusing things.
