It kind've looks like a Moskvitch 407, but the rear wheel arches aren't right.
It needs to be pro-street though, tubbed arches & a bug-catcher poking up through the bonnet.

I thought it was very Wolsley /Austin ish, but cant find a match
My gut thoughts are its more of an eastern European/Asian design, and probably around the 1970's
Could we have a little more info, ?
