So had the same name like 'with windows', I think 'Estate' in UK.

yep. as is written in text in link above - the versions without windows were made mainly for export to scandinavian countries, as there were lower taxes for such panel vans, than for classic estates.

This is a later one than the link - has rear lights down by bumper not in the fins. I have a slight memory of these being sold in UK in early 70s (so close to film date) - very low numbers. However not sure of the name, but would have been Van in some way for us Brits to understand.

New info - we got the van from Sept 67 as 7cwt capacity. Jan 70 rear fins deleted and lights moved to bumper, discontinued Dec 71.
