Fellow Autopuzzlers, for a point please identify this car and the approximate year.

Don't be naughty! Stay away from Google Search by Image, kids.

Art project possibly based on a car from the 1910's or 1920's.  Original car showed little resemblance to this vehicle sinking its front wheels into the sand.

This is the OTROFORD made using a Ford T chasis. The builders of such cars were the brothers De Vizcaya with a small shop in the town of Caldetasn north of Barcelona. They were operating between 1922 and 1924. This car was a barn find presented in the "Salón Auto-Retro" of Barcelona in 2013.
