    Actually it's an LTD II - smaller, built on the fox chassis. Ours spent more time in the service garage than it did in mine.

    Run with it!

    I think it's Italian... Those slats in the side and the tiny quarter windows. Countach? Diablo?

    Figured that out when I went to look online - it was a wild guess. The second window part is too small and there are no vents. The Ferrari P3-4 had separate windos but they were smaller and sliding sideways.

    While the Google bots are running let me tell you a true story about LTD II wagaons.

    They were based on the same Fox platform as that years Mustang. Same engine optios and everything bolts in. Replace the entire front clip of the LTD II with the Mustang one. fenders, hood, grill, lights, all of it. Replace the seats with Mustang buckets - the holes are already there.

    Paint it up and add Mustang emblems and you have a Mustang station wagon they never made.

    Also works with a Roadrunner and a Satellite wagon, Pontiac GTO and the Le Mans wagon.

    Cars that never were was a trend in the US for a few years.

    You made it too easy. Autozam AZ-1. Sixty-three whole horsepower propelling 720kg of purest distilled misery, from the look of it. Now I have to figure out how to post a new challenger...

    EDIT: This one's easier than inserting pictures into posts and the name is... memorable:

    The door shape is about right for a Wrangler Unlimited but the hinges are wrong and the indentation in the lower door areas like 3 grooves is wrong for a Jeep

    Wrong continent.

    I'll be gone for a few hours, so here's a hint in the meantime; you'd be very in touch with nature driving one.

    EDIT: It may also help to study the relative size of that wheel.

    Something like a Tata? Those wheels are tiny, so it's for rutted, rural roads and to keep the tyres as cheap as possible.

    I thought Indian too, but I've never seen anything like that rear wheel arch back home.

    The handles, hinges and wing mirror stink of Mahindra, though.

    All that tough-stuff is a Hummer H2-esque sham, this thing couldn't summon the power to pull a greased stick... It's reminiscent of a European mini-4x4, with plastic knock-offs of the original's fabric dash. (I don't want give too much away. Can some unique feature make it too easy? I think some attributes do. Anyway I hope after this some useless noob actually knows enough detail to get it!)

    I think after this I might just post a whole photo, I don't think anyone here's ever going to have heard of it... :hehe:
