such modifications are actually quite popular here in japan, taking a normal car, and making the face look old-school style, il try put up some pics of other cars that have had a similar transformation

The last one is a starlet. Those Nissan Micra type cars were also made by Nissan factories. Cant remember the name, seen a few in the import auctions

I thought the Casablanca model wasn't actually for the Japanese market. Either China or Korea IIRC.

However, I'm 99% sure there were never any turbo models built. Think the turbo bonnet is a graft on.

Casablancas were usually 'Wagons... I don think that Ive ever seen a Saloon before.

The other links dont work but Im guessing that they are all Mitsuokas?

They arent! Theyre all a little half-hearted, arent they?

This is a Mitsuoka View-T, based on a March...
