Close. It's an Austin Maxi. They used some Land Crab (Austin 1800) components but the engine and transmision were diferent. Mine was a 74. All Maxi's had a 5 speed gearbox, pretty unusual at the time. I swapped it for a 69 Landrover. Some in my wider family thought I was nuts. The Landrover was still running over 20 years later.
