I took those pics (photoshopped out the badges) but even with the badges it took a bit of searching to figure out what it is. I have never seen one of these before. If anyone knows what this car is you're a true car guru.

edit - this is the closest so far

Bingo. It actually traces itself to a German military vehicle of World War II (more or less the equivalent of our first Jeep), called the Kubelwagen

Looks like a Suzuki Alto Works RS/R and the wheels look like they're from a mid-80s CRX.

Ding ding ding we have a winner. Well done. The wheels I would have never guessed. Here's the car without photoshop (sans the plate).
