1958 Chrysler Imperial - ULTRA 7 POINTER

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.
