These people are natives of a place far from where the picture was taken.

Yes!

I suspect the car will now be easy to identify. The driver, perhaps not.

Was the driver Antonio, the Igorot chief? BTW Igorot means Philippines

That's him!

And, I never said the driver wasn't from a Pacific island (the Philippines, for instance  ;) ). I said the picture was not taken on a Pacific Island

I think the car was called Pathfinder, but I have yet to find the brand

"Under the triangular bamboo frame from which hung three buffalo skulls, Antonio, chief of the Bontoc Igorito sat at the wheel of the Pathfinder, to have his "picture took".
