Has this got something to do with Trekka of New Zealand?

[Ray B.]

It does. The point is yours if you can be more precise and give the year.

I'd never have known without that steer - it's the first prototype, dated by the site as "around 1964" and, apparently, pre-dating the Trekka name.

1964 and first prototype are right.
