Was it built by a "true" manufacturer of automobiles?

Found it in a group of cars, only listed as a Czechoslovakian home built VW. No year or builder.

It was built in Czechoslovakia and based on a Beetle, yes.
But I have a town where it was built and a year in which it was built, both of which I need for the point.
Locked for you to delve into it to see what you can find.

The web site didn't list specifically the pictured cars info, but, there is reference to another in the group as coming from Litomerice in 1971. I tried to use a translator program on the picture's caption but came up with mostly gibberish.
