Emis Art from Brazil?

[sixtee5cuda]

I'll give the point to Thorax, for providing both halves of the name, as well as the type of engine.

The puzzle car is a Buggy Safari w VW 1600cc engine, made around 1985.  Various websites claim more than one was built, but I have only found pictures of one example.

One example that is, with 3 completely different looks, but the same license plate...

Emis Art from Brazil?

That was idea too...it's just like that or an evolution of it.

trying to solve a Jotage's puzzle about buggies  , I've found this some months ago: I'm happy to score a point

I had no idea that the Emis Art existed.  The puzzle car does appear to be based on one.  I don't think this should be merged with the existing Emis Art puzzle, but I will award a point to studhamsmudger
