Title: Beautiful Dream #415 - Studebaker Sceptre/Wagonaire by Brooks Stevens, 1963

For one easy point: What was this, by whom, from when?

Only a correct, complete and specific answer will earn a point; tag-on's to other guesses will not. So, be specific and complete!

A truly beautiful car, OP.

The car us a Studebaker Sceptre/Wagonaire designed by Brooks Stevens and I think built by Sibona-Bessona.  I have seen conflicting dates for this one, 1964 and 1965 so I hope I am close enough.

Edit:  I just checked the Brooks Stevens Museum site and the photo caption for this car says Sept. 1963 so that is probably the most accurate answer

Edit  2:  A little bird just told me the correct spelling for the builder is Sibona-Basano.

I think the puzzle pic (at least the wagon section) was an illustration, versus the finished car, but you've provided to information required for the point.

Well-solved!
