johnfromstaffs ◊ 2011-02-01 20:51	The location information says that the film was made in USA, and makes no reference to locations in Japan. This would suggest that the car may not be a 1932 Datsun Type 10 disguised as an Austin 7, but may be a 1930 American Austin 7 disguised as an Austin 7. It may even be an Austin 7 disguised as a Datsun, or as a fictitious mock up of an Austin 7. If a man that big was sitting in it, there would be no room for his legs and any mechanical parts, so it may be a movie mock up anyway.
