Looks like one of the wildly modified Argentinian Ford or Chevy-based road-race cars from the early '60s.... Am I on the right track?

It's a TC (Turismo Carretera) but Toia is not the nama I have.
My source is a quite detailed article.

I spent a good few hours going through Turismo Carretera cars the other day, which was very interesting as it's a subject I've never really delved into before, but ultimately frustrating.

Before I go any further, is there information about the puzzle car online? I have no other sources that even touch on this subject so I'm limited to web searching...

This is how I found it. There are many huge sites out there about these cars...in one of them (I can't remeber if it's one of the minor ones...) you'll find it.

Okay, I wasn't totally wasting my time... and yeah, I realised there are quite a few websites on this subject  :-X

Let's narrow it down a bit, with my new found knowledge of TC cars this one looks like it dates from around 1966-67 perhaps?

Not Crepi or a known name...by me at least.
The time range is almost correct...the article is from 1968.

That's an hell of a lucky guess!
I mean if you found the article, you know it is...but if you didn't, well, that's VERY correct!
It was quite hard: a well deserved point for you and the rest of the article...

I've found casually the article searching Fiat derivates in argentinian forums: at first time I've not recognise the car
