Thanks.
And has this little car only recently come to light after hiding for some years or is it quite well known in Argentina?

The car has been hidden for more than 50 years. Only its owners knew about it, while most of us did not even know about its existense.

This so far unknown microcar was built around 1955 and was powered by a Villiers engine.
