Revell minibus, VW combi-based.

According to my source it's based on a VW Beetle, not a combi, and was made by Franco Revel (with one L), but you're close enough to score the point.

Franco Revel from Crenna di Gallarate lengthened and widened a VW 1200 chassis, and it took him seven years to complete the car. He drove 100 000 km in his creation between 1961 and 1969.
