Abarth Simca 1300 GT
That looks pretty close but I can't find any pics of one with the same amber lights on the bumper. Do you know anything else about it, is it a one-off maybe?

The yellow one lacks the round silver mirror on the OP, and the other has a different bumper
Are they just slightly different models?
Same model, just different parts for different uses. The yellow one in the link is a rally car, and as they only run one car on the track at a time, there's no need for mirrors as there's no one behind them.
The blue one's bumpers have vents that direct air to the brakes, just as cars today have different body kits for different reasons (functional or cosmetic)
Those look look like stock trailer lights. Soo, it's aftermarket.
Nah, not really. In the 1950s-60s these little button lights were rather common for turn signals.

And even the [Thunderbird](https://img.hmn.com/fit-in/900x506/filters:upscale(\)/stories/2019/09/CC182-dR-01.jpg) used them.
Ok. You might be correct on that. I just got few just like them for my trailer. But than again many car brands use off the shelf stuff.
