That's an Elegant with SS grille. I've shared the pics in the restored Fiats thread.

I just hope someone has rescued her. Don't know the exact location but looks like the outer suburbs of Mumbai. Credits to @picholic77 on Instagram

Bang on spot Kasli, yes on the Vasai Ghodbunder road. Somewhere close to the McDonald's outlet or Kinara Dhaba. It's also accompanied by a Toyota Cressida and a Toyota Crown (similar state).

This jeep's been sitting at this spot close to my locality for quite some time. The construction site behind used to be an open plot until recently so it used to be parked facing that side earlier.
No idea if tis a genuine Ford or not. It does sport a 50s number. Interior seems modified.
No way of finding out who it belongs to either!

Give me your address

, Jokes apart, you can file a police complaint if the property belongs to you, Hyderabad has a lot of such vintage beauties lying around, during my stay in Hyderabad(2007-2009) I came across many such vintage beauties at throw away prices, regret not taking a call then, there was a roadking for 5k

.

Best of luck

The wheels are not original, the seats too, the front windscreen is not original. The best way to tell would be to look at the front cross member, the suspension mount and the front bumper brackets.

The engine bay would tell us what engine this is fitted with. But in all probability that would have been changed as well.

Unfortunately I'm not that prosperous in this regard (yet!) :P
