It looks like a 54 cheiftan but doubled the lights to the top and enlarged them , but the tailgate doesnt work then .
Maybe tank fairlane wagon with double lights

I reckon its european, looks like a pint sized 55 Buick but the lines are too crisp n lights out of proportion for GM. Looks cool tho cant wait to see full sized pic.

I agree, going by Alastair's previous work it could well be a drawing

I wouldn't have a clue what that is...pontiac or chrysler maybe?

You can kinda see the reflection of the badge on the bumper in the first photo.

Harko - good spotto.

But no photoshop involved.

It is a Vespa 3 wheel delivery. When I bought and restored it it had no load body on the back. It would probably have had a zink box/van body.
I had wrecked a rusted out 60 Pontiac for parts for my 59 Bel Air and kept those rear fender pieces cause they were just so nice. I used sections from all sorts to create a Ute type loadbody. I wanted it to look as though it could have left the factory that way. Bumper and panel beneath the bumper is a narrowed down HR . Tailgate is hand fasioned.

The scooter itself is quiet fun to cruise around the neighbourhood with, but never to do any far distance with. Got a 175 cc motor with 4 gears. The diff splits to give you reverse, So you have four reverse gears!!!From the side shafts it has a chain drive on each side down to the back wheels.
Hope no one is too dissappointed with the little thing, but it did get the imagination going.
