Remembering Japanese cars from the past

Hilarious: Bollywood meets Japan in the 60s!

In 1966 Bollywood shot a movie called Love in Tokyo. The movie was shot partly on site in Tokyo, so be prepared to see a totally different Tokyo than you are used to:

Pole dancing in the sixties?!

In this video you can already see parts of the, back then, newly built Shuto Expressway.

Cars I spotted so far: Prince Skyline S50 taxi, some Nissan Cedrics next to the traffic lights, a Toyota Corona T40 with the old lady and now and then a Prince Gloria S40.

In this part the male character drives, what looks like, a Nissan Fairlady 1500 SP310:

Enough of the cars! This one is really hilarious:

And another one to say goodbye:
