1 point for identifying this car, who built it and what it is/was known by:

Google Image Search continues to raise its ugly head on AutoPuzzles.
For the sake of our newer members who may not be aware of past discussions on it, Google Image Search as a means of solving puzzles is banned on this website.

AutoPuzzles is primarily a game of automotive knowledge, not of who can copy and paste the quickest.

We ask all members to remember and respect this, and retain the right to ask puzzle-solvers how they came to their answer.

Have fun!

It's Brasilian 'Patinho Feio' II, VW based. 1970, IIRC.

I think you've got the right car, but my Portuguese is not brilliant..
What's its name in English?
And who built it?

Ricardo Achcar, as far as I know :)

'Patinho Feio' is 'Ugly Duckling', and this is the second car of the series. The first one was even more 'feio' :)

Maybe it's worth to mention 'Patinho Feio' in thread name as well? For future searches.
