This is the only pic I can find of the Oz built 5 door station wagon; there must be still some about somewhere:
. I know that there were a few still around in the 70's. While not common most Australians would have know at least one person who owned, or had owned one. Admittedly they were mainly owned by people who were had eclectic or French links or tastes (no; neither I nor any of my family owned a Simca).

But the indicator seems curved rather than trapezoid like a Dino. Maybe a Kelmark GT or similar clone.
