Dekotora

Dekotora

By Henry Lambert on November 20, 2006

Inspired by a 1970s movie, Trucker, that featured as the protagonist a costumed trucker who drove his garishly decorated truck all over Japan. This movie was a big hit with both old and young, and caused a wave of Dekotora popularity to sweep over the country.

Pink Tentacle have found a brilliant collection of Dekotora trucks on the web.
