I’m gonna shout FIAT without thinking it through or looking it up. So prolly wrong.
But those look like FIAT hubcaps.

Wow, a straight six tweaked by Abarth. Good-looking car too.
“Designed by Sergio Sartorelli and Tom Tjaarda at Carrozzeria Ghia in 1960, it was apparently very much inspired by the Ferrari 250 GTE, and it’s not hard to see the evidence.”
Good find!

Pretty rare two-door wagon,
But they must have made more than one.

It’s not a Jeep Wagoneer! (look at the top of the rear window)
Right hand drive - a clue.

The grill looks Datsun. I'd say 1970. Mirrors so far forward screams Japanese.

Isuzu Bellett Express, '63-73 or so, besides the home market wildly popular in Indonesia and Australia.

They made a one-ton version (!) but I couldn't find a pic.

More like a sedan delivery than a station wagon, one story says it was favored by florists and beer delivery and such, sort of a parallel to the Duett.
There is a 1/43rd model of it too.
