With the modifications to the bonnet, I'd suspect some mods or even an engine swap?

A much better transmission too most likely. The OEM one would have fainted when shown those tyres…..it would be a rusty-tufty manual box too.

I'd love to know what it's capable of, unless its just a wannabe off roader.

A friend on a shoot had a Nissan Pick Up with Tonca Toy tyres like that they lasted just over a month
Apparently the noise they made on the road drove him nuts he went back to standard wheel/tyre set up. He sold the Tonca Toy set for more than the cost of a new standard set so a win for him
