Can this possibly a Gato Montes from Spain from about 1971 and powered by a flat twin 2 cyl motor of 23.7 horsepower.  I have not found the brand of the motor.
The name "Wildcat" was also mentioned but looks to me to be another variant.

It could indeed, yes!
You're right that it was made in Spain, but where in Spain?
You're also right about the 2-cyl flat twin but I still need to know where it was sourced from to award the point.

It's therefore locked for you to have a good dig and see if you can come up with the missing information.
