1959–1965 Siam di Tella of Argentina, they were externally identical to the Riley 4/72 family. There was the sedan Di Tella 1500, the station wagon Di Tella Traveller and the pick-up (never produced in England) Di Tella Argenta. All of them were fitted with the 1498cc engine and 3 speed manual column change.[1]

Right. I had it as "Rural Traveller", but I am not sure if "rural" is part of the model name.
Done.

At one point I was thinking of posting a pic of the same kind of car -- been seeing that a lot lately, actually.
