1971 Sport by the Automobil Club Río Gallegos of Argentina, it has a Fairlane V8 engine. I wonder if the car was made by the members of the club or what.

Indeed.  I'd like to see a better picture of it if there are any?
No more Argentinian puzzles though!  It used to be they were really difficult to solve but now they're gone instantly..!

What we need are more puzzle cars from within the antarctic circle. Cars from all other land masses are too well-known by our members!

In Spanish it's Automóvil with "V" and to make even more correct, maybe you could also ad the accent on Río.

OK, done (it was CrazyAutopuzzler who wrote 'Automobil' and I hadn't even noticed the accent!)
I'm not too sure what the Search facility thinks of accents; maybe if someone asks for 'Rio' it won't show up as it doesn't match 'Río'.  I'll have to check it.

It's OK; it does.
