the wheels look like Skoda ones, is it a Skoda 1102 or Octavia based?

hondast gave the complete answer, before I was able to lock for targhrdiferro.

Gerónimo Gnecco was an Argentine coachbuilder they made at least 100 of the Skoda based estate cars, but were really better know for their bus bodies.

I think that G.Gnecco hoped to realize a look-a-like Chevy Nomad wagon, ad the tail profile has almost the same design. It seems quite an accurate job.

Was there a Skoda factory (assembly) in Argentine. If yes what did they produce and when.
Thanks

No there was never a Skoda factory in Argentina, only the bodies were made here and by independent coachbuilders.
