I don't think so, but, as we've determined, my Spanish is not good.

Could be from Argentina. It seems to be a Rastrojero in the background.

It's parked on a street, so I'll assume that is possible. But competition was its raison d'être

I believe you are correct - locked for you until I can verify.

Sorry - false alarm. Visually similar, but not that car.

This is a Ford Turismo Carretera prototype driven by Francisco Alcuaz from Argentina in 1968. The strange design was made by the Toia brothers using a Fiat 1500 Coupé roof and windshield and Ford Falcon-like doors. The car was made on the basis of a '46 Ford chassis with a Ford F-100 engine. The body was built by Carlos “Pelichueco” Marinangelli.
