Indeed it's not a real car but a rendering!

Ford-based or is it a make of its own ?

Nothing to do with Ford, but it is a concept for an established make.

I'm not quite there yet and my printer just ran out of ink and I cannot get a new cartridge for 3 hours so cannot print the photo to compare with other stuff.

I think this may be a design exercise by GM do Brasil for the Puma type vehicle (Opala range).

Well, that sort of leaves us with Chrysler do Brasil.

Perhaps a rendering for a proposed Valiant Charger around 1973, 1974?
On the other hand, that doesn't seem right as it sort of looks like the south end of a current Chrysler 200/300 in the background.

Well, there quite a few others..
But there is a Chrysler connection, although it's not a Chrysler.

Well, you learn something new every day.

Perhaps a rendering for an Alfa Romeo do Brasil car in the 1973-74 time period?

No, nothing to do with Alfa and earlier than 1973/4.

Well, Norman, you really know how to make a body work.
Simca do Brasil Xango from 1966.

You found it!  Well done.
And you've no doubt learned a lot about the Brazilian motoring scene in the process; fascinating, and there are lots and lots of very interesting cars (and puzzles!)
