I don't think it is either. Maybe it is some kind of unfamiliar Brazilian make?

It does indeed have a strange look to it...doesn't really look like a Bronco II. The front door kind of looks like that from a 70's/80's Chevrolet. :think:

At first glance, it looks like a Bronco II, but the parking lights and taillights say different. (As in foreign.)

Sorry for my bad english... It is not a Ford. I don't remember the name of this car (Perhaps Brazinca Bonanza), but it is treated of a pickup Chevrolet D20 with transformation gone of the factory to become a SUV.

See what says the web site www.bcws.com.br -- http://www2.uol.com.br/bestcars/classicos/d20-1.htm :

"The transformed picapes--in doublecab or wagons--they were true fever in the decade of 1980, when the closed market to the import didn't offer options for great families. The models Ford and Chevrolet were white of every luck of modifications, not rare with scandalous decorations and inspired back covers in automobiles.

Transformation example with quality recognized by own GM is Brasinca, company from São Paulo that it had built the car sport 4200 GT/Uirapuru in the past were. As your facilities are that they produced the original cabines of the series 10/20, it could already transform them in the origin.

The picapes were true luxury cars, with coating of the banks in leather, involving bumpers in plastic with fiber-of-glass, rubber anti-noise, console with extension of the air conditioning for the back, space for up to four people behind, television of 6 pol, electric refrigerator and the option of I darken in the diesel engine, before your offer for GM. The Mangalarga wagon and Passo Fino) Fine Step they ended adopted by the mark: with simplified finish, they became the new Of summer and Bonanza, in 1989".

It is a brazilian car.

Michal, looking closely at the shape of the rear pillar with four groups of vents and at the design of the side window I think the shape of the Chevrolet Bonanza ( as can be seen on the 2nd link, page 2 ) fits very well. Different bumpers and rear lights may be, perhaps, items of different model years.

I was too fast and didn't check second page. ;) Both are based on the Chevy, though it is indeed car mentioned by Leganza.

I suggested the Chevrolet Bonanza because I read that Chevrolet adopted the Brasinca vehicles and rebadged them as Chevrolet. Nevertheless, among all the Chevrolet Bonanzas I saw for sale, none had this particular shape of the rear pillar.
So, according to what is written on the 2nd link , this must be a Brasinca Passo Fino, based on the Chevrolet D 20.

It's really a Brasinca Passo Fino, but the Chevy Bonanza, launched some years later, was made by Brasinca too, under a GM Brasil-Brasinca deal (this is a traditional partnership between these companies in Brazil).
