 Packard grille.

Some googling leads to one youtube video ( which I think shows the exact same right-hand drive example ) :

Google translated:
Quote Emperor Showa's Packard (Packard) with a chrysanthemum crest...
Showa Emperor's car Packard. It seems that there were only three in Japan at that time...
Moreover, it is well maintained and can still be driven.
The remaining two were brought back by GHQ MacArthur, the other one seems to be in a museum somewhere.

Assuming the two are the same cars... this one would be a '36 Super Eight according to Wikipedia :
