It's not locked for Djetset, is it?

"Proto type model(1957)
「台車」
これは、スバル360の開発中にメカニズムの実車テストを行なうために作られたもの。
これで、公道などを走って色々テストを行ないました。
ドアもヒーターもないので冬場のテストは大変だったそうです。
一見、スバル360ベースのバギーカーにも見えます。"

So, this one was called Dolly I believe

I've seen it called 'Dolly', but I also have it listed with a less colorful name.

OK, one point for pnegyesi. Puzzle locked for Djetset, who can earn a point with the other name in play.
