Not what we call an obscure brand, but I can't call it a major one.

Perfect! I suppose the correct model is RI-6 but I haven't find an absolutely affordable source or other pictures of this car...does anybody have?

According to Georgano, only 14 RI-6 models were completed, of which 13 were standard "coach" saloons, with this single coupe by Antem. So it's pretty rare  :).
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia
