I traveled to Japan to meet Yasushi Shiroi and his custom built "Pointer 1." This car is from a 1960's sci-fi show called "Ultra 7."
If you thought keeping a classic American car was hard in the US then you don't know what it takes to keep one in Asia. This Imperial is a frankenstein of American and Japanese parts.
None of the original cars from Ultra 7 exist, making this the only living representation of automotive marvel that is TDF-PO1.
See how a lifelong project changed this man's life and helped create a family inside and outside of his home.
Enjoy, share and SUBSCRIBE!
Special thanks goes out to Nate Truman of Starcarscentral.com who helped me find this special car and wonderful man. Check out his bevy of super cars at www.starcarcentral.com

当時、六甲山での撮影に出くわして、ポインターの実物を見ました。近くの休憩場所にはダンもアンヌも居たらしいのですが、僕はポインターの周りを何周もしたことしか、記憶にありません。中には外国人が運転席に乗っていて地球防衛隊をさらに現実味を。 今でも最も乗ってみたいクルマです。

Excellent job ! I can only imagine how hard it was to just get a hold of a car that old. Then to do all the modifications just show a dedication to making his childhood dream car.

噂には聞こえにすれど、やはりここで紹介されているポインターのレプリカはつくづく素晴らしいプロダクトであると思いました。また、それを創り上げ今に乗り続けているオーナーの方が羨ましくも思えます。昨日、たまたま横田基地の日米友好祭の写真を拝見したので、つられて動画を探していたところ、この動画を拝見いたしました。以前からTAXIを稼業をとしているオイラ としては、先々、それで個人TAXIでもやりたいなと妄想をしているのですが、しかし、日本でTAXIの営業車として新規登録するには製造から三年以内という縛りもある故、新たにポインターのレプリカを、それも現代的にアップデートして作るとすれば、クライスラーのハッチバック、ダッジMAGNAMあたりがベースには良いかなぁとか妄想してしまた。また他のベース候補としてはトヨタ・センチュリーあたりも考えてみたりして。ポインターは夢のクルマですね。

This is an amazing build. That said, it's pretty clear when you watch the show that the car did run; they have scenes of it taking off up hill. lol Perhaps there were some scenes when the car wouldn't run and was then pushed into frame, but after having watched many episodes of the show I haven't found any. Either way it's a beautiful vehicle and I'm so happy to have a model of one.

12,000 USD in taxes just to keep it on the road!?!? Good god that's eye-watering, I knew Japan penalized owners of older cars to encourage sales of new domestic cars, but that's absurd!

Debería existir algún registro de reliquias automovilísticas de alto valor cultural que permita exonerar a este tipo de autos de esos impuestos que no aplican a estos casos.

¡Es magnífico en todo aspecto! Excepto en el motor, quizá por su antigüedad resulta demasiado ruidoso, así que le sugiero intentar cambiarlo por uno eléctrico, o algo más silencioso.

Some Japanese believe that if you grow up with "Ultra 7" episodes, that will make you smarter becuase the story is deep. ( ^∀^)

From Wikipedia: For the 1955 model year, the Imperial was launched and registered as a separate marque (make), apart from the Chrysler brand. It was a product of the new Imperial Division of Chrysler Corporation, meaning that the Imperial would be a make and division unto itself, and NOT bear the Chrysler name. Chrysler Corporation sent notices to all state licensing agencies in the then-48 states that the Imperial, beginning in 1955, would no longer be registered as a Chrysler, but as a SEPARATE MAKE .

Anyone who calls this car a "Chrysler" Imperial knows little or nothing about this cars history: The Imperial STARTED life as a Chrysler model in 1926, but in 1955, it was SPUN OFF of the Chrysler Division , and was registered as a SEPARATE , DISTINCT MAKE, NOT BEARING THE "CHRYSLER " NAME at all. It didn't even bear the VIN number of a Chrysler. Why was the IMPERIAL split off from Chrysler ? Because the two cars competed in two entirely DIFFERENT price classes. CHRYSLER was a upper-medium-priced car, comparable to BUICK and MERCURY.... whereas IMPERIAL was a high-class , high-priced luxury car, comparable to CADILLAC and LINCOLN. The "Chrysler" name CHEAPENED the IMPERIAL , and gave it a medium-class stigma. So, in 1955 , the decision was made to SPIN-OFF the IMPERIAL into it's OWN BRAND/MAKE/ DIVISION, so it could better compete in the price class that it was CREATED for in the FIRST PLACE . Thus , the term "Chrysler Imperial" is ERRONEOUS . **WANT PROOF ?** you've GOT it !! (1) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperial_(automobile)#First_generation_(1955%E2%80%931956):_A_separate_make 2) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1rwur6xqYcM.html 3) www.imperialclub.com/Repair/Lit/Marque/index.htm 4) books.google.com/books?id=AeADAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA98&lpg=PA98&dq=POPULAR+MECHANICS+1954+IMPERIAL&source=bl&ots=r-ojLLe4IA&sig=Q8H5K6KI0OIE4QX6V7c7HZUUZh4&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjhvsuIntnbAhXYIDQIHddwDc8Q6AEIeTAR#v=onepage&q=POPULAR%20MECHANICS%201954%20IMPERIAL&f=false
