Immediately makes thinking of a Citroën Ami 6 Break, but the rear lights doesn't match. Ami 8 neither, those ones are smaller and the 5th door haven't the silver stripe seen under the window.
Maybe a local modification?
This puzzles a bit... :think:

effectivement, on pense Ami6 mais avec les feux arrières qui semblent verticaux est-ce que ça ne serait pas une 304 Break ?
( il a juste soudé le hayon arrière car on ne voit plus les charnières :D )

Il y a des artefacts à l'œuvre dans les feux arrière

À partir de 1970, Citroën produit l'Ami 8 Break en Argentine, par exemple 100 exemplaires sont exportés à Cuba en 1974.

Une Ami 6 scale 1/86 de Norev a été l'une de mes premières petites voitures en 1970 et je ne l'oublierai jamais.

Was it a little red plastic one like this?

Yes, dear dsl, a similar Norev model, but i remember the color was a kind of pale turquoise very typical.

in fact it was the color that made me think of Citroen first glance!

Thumbs 2 and 3 - I don't think simple push-button on tailgate matches Ami or Peugeot 204/304.

If I recall my memories correctly, I believe Citroën in Argentina made some special versions. This one seems to actually have a push-button on the tailgate Link to "i.pinimg.com" .

Any chance the picture comes from South America or did they export a lot?
