Why do other countries get the cool, weird stuff. Apparently these were made until 1989!
The second door is so confusing to me. Why does it have a segmented window? That's usually done to allow the rest of the window to roll down when there is a wheel well, but here, there is no wheel well in the way. Sometimes, it is done because they are just re-using the same front door again, which would explain the space between the two because the second door was originally intended to be behind a sloped windshield. But here, the front door is less sloped on its leading edge than the rear! Its from some other vehicle entirely, why not use the same door twice or use a door that fit the profile better?
You've posted this in the builds and project cars section and, as such, I believe that you are now obligated to import one of those and begin the project.
They're cool because I've never seen one before, but they're also pretty dang ugly. Reminds me of what a hypothetical 60s Infiniti QX80 might look like.

I have no idea why I posted that here. Should’ve been the main forum obviously
In reply to pinchvalve :
It looks like it simplified the track. Straight vertical. With the shape of the rear side of the door a single piece window would have had to slide forwards or rotate forward or something.

I probably shouldn’t have let you off the hook. Oh well, move completed.

I would stay in an Art Deco hotel.
The yellow one is odd. Looks like they made more cargo area by moving he windshield forward intead of extending the wheelbase.
Ford Brazil made some odd stuff too. There was a truck that looked like a four door Bronco/F150 hybrid called the F-1000.
And others.... https://www.google.com/amp/s/jalopnik.com/behold-the-beautiful-madness-of-what-brazil-did-to-ford-1794932201/amp
