A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

;D That's actually the closest answer so far!

You're on the right track everyone of course, I guess this will be unsolved until someone guesses correctly....

Sverrisson?

Woohoo! It IS the Sverrisson!

QuoteSverrisson (195?)

This is a car that my grandfather Einar Sverrisson (b. 1914 - d. 2004) built in the times when cars were luxury and hard to get in Iceland. The car was registered with the brand name "Sverrisson" and was probably constructed soon after 1950, Material came from various sources e.g. frame from Ford GPW (or Willys MB), Chevrolet engine from a small truck, and the body was custom built from wood.
