For 1 point what is this car and from when does it date (and as far as I can ascertain this car with this body has not appeared on AP before)?

Exactly!
In fact it is actually the same car as in this puzzle:

www.autopuzzles.com/forum/index.php?topic=12462.0

but with its original body before it was modified to the appearance in my earlier puzzle NEH 535; someone did actually post the same picture as this puzzle car in that thread..

I don't think it classes as a re-post but maybe others disagree?

Here's another picture of this car with its later bodywork as pictured on the other puzzle mentioned above:
