The back of the cab is too vertical to be a BRAT. Seen from here, this vehicle reminds me of a mid 1980s VW Saveiro.

i'd agree.. headlights also look different from a BRAT

It's definitely not a Subaru. The VW looks close, but the main pic looks like a longer vehicle.

This one kind of looks like an Audi 80/VW Passat based.

It's quite surely a VW/Audi by shape of front and door. Also the colour looks late 70ies VAG-ish.

On the first view I thought about a converted 1977 Audi 80, but this Brazilian Pickup may be correct.

Did South Africa make some kind of ute mongrel?

South Africa made utes of anything they could get their hands on. How about Corolla or perhaps Sunny??

ZA-built vehicles very rarely reach West Africa (this is Senegal) Probably a used car from somewhere in Western Europe that got turned into a pickup.

Deeply embarrassing, especially as an admirer and former owner of an older Subaru :cry: I tricked myself into thinking that the front-end is of the early 1980s Subaru of some sort, but certainly not of the Brat, because obviously the B-pillar was wrong, so I assumed it was a local ¨butcher´s¨ job which turned another body style into a pickup, but I couldn't come to a conclusion.

VW is certainly a better chaise now. What about US Pickup ?

I think it's bigger than that. And the wheelbase is longer than my first thought the Saveiro. Maybe it is a Passat Variant hacked into a pickup. Those tubes that extend from the roof to the end of the bed seem to be there to add more rigidity to the roofless body.

The front bumper has also been replaced by two metal tubes. The whole thing looks home made to me.
