Similar to the AMC Rambler Marlin (1965-67). Maybe crossed with the Nissan NX.

They were available with cowhide carpeting. I wonder if Argentinian farmers took the hatch off to make a ute.

Looks like double wishbones up front and semi-trailing arms in back? That's about a million times better than the original Speedster's suspension, which Porsche 356 guru and racer Vic Skirmants once called "The worst possible racing suspension design." (That's full trailing-arm front suspension and swing-axle rear.)

No camber adjustment with the trailing arms. Swing arms were deprecated, but the original Speedster had them.

Inrekor wanted to make whole cars and big money, where they could have owned the entire flat-pack floorpan market.
