Test mule for the AMX Pacer running gear while Nash finalised the body style.

There is no technical or historical relation between the puzzle car and any American Motors product or related product. The big hint is that, at some point in space and time, the puzzle car got parked alongside a 1961 Rambler American convertible. Understanding the hint will be a big step towards the solution.

The rear part looks a French KV Mini, maybe the front has been added from another French front driven car...

No KV Mini relation and not French

I have very few details about this car but yes, it was most probably built in the USA.

Is the car in the same museum as the 1961 Rambler American?
Title: Re: oko063

No museum involved, but you've got the right way of thinking.

The hint was : both the puzzle car and the 1961 Rambler American were on sale at the same classic car auction in Spring 2015.

Original pictures of the contraption.
