What is Japanese Car Archive?
Japanese Car Archive is an independent long-term preservation project based in Japan.
We collect, scan and restore original Japanese car brochures from the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s — before the paper fades, rust eats the metal, and memories disappear.
No sponsorship, no ads, no lifestyle noise.
Just machines, documents and the quiet history behind them.
