    Looks like a Toyota 2000GT, with non-stock flares.

    It is a Toyota 2000 GT.. a crime to see one in this condition... this particular car/picture has popped up alot recently on vintage japanes forums and is believed to be in another country somewhere.

    Yeah it would be great to see an article about the 2000 GT.. Ive been a vintage toyota fan since way before it was cool {even in small circles} so in the meanwhile look at this link, TONS of info on the 2000 GT and most all other vintage toyota sports car and racing efforts. including the Shelby connection! as well as the group 7 {can am} cars and lots of other really cool stuff... http://www.2000gt.net/

    FWIW, Hemmings Sports and Exotic Car did a cover story and drive impression on the 2000 GT a year or two ago.
