Is this to say that the Paykan is the mark, or the model of the car?

I did a search a while back on the Paykan, and came up with squat.

Also, where could we/ "I" get some info on the Avenger engine.

The Avenger was sold in the U.S. as the Plymouth Cricket, and
it looks like it might be a neat little race car for a "Sunbeam racing
team".

How are the spares supplies for the Avenger too?
