Fellow Autopuzzlers, for a point please identify this car and the year it was made.

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

Repe 227 (the DKW Vemag in the background was a great hint ;D )

Thank you.  ;)
"Prototype built for Norman Casari in 1970, in Petrópolis (RJ), by driver and builder Renato Peixoto (nicknamed "Golden Hammer" by his sports friends). Renato was a builder of merit and since the previous decade was preparing bodies for the Brazilian tracks. The 1970 prototype, which was renamed Repe (by Renato Peixoto) 227, had an aluminium single-seater body mounted on a Merlyn chassis and a Ford Cortina 1.6 engine, both of British origin and used in Formula Ford tournaments earlier in 1970. The Repe 227 successfully participated in several events from 1970 to 1972.
