Not that one.
Actually I misled you in my reply #12; you were right when you guessed it was from the late 1960s.
Still locked for you.

Locked?

Yes - still locked for kwgibbs for one more try.

OK; mine says 1967 but I have no idea which is right so we'll call it solved!
It was part of the programme to replace the 360 kei-car so that probably lasted during 1967, 68 ad 69!
Well done.
