Under all the rust you might find a name on the iron. I can’t tell from what I can see in the photos.

The only clue seems to be the lateral adjuster. It looks like what Sargent used. It could be one they made for a private company.

That looks like it could be a lot of work to get back to user status.

That lateral adjuster looks like Stanley Victor to me.

Sometime around 1962, Stanley crimped that lever's end down. Has the rib on the toe and heel, could be either an 1105, or a #1205......May have been made to be sold by Sears, too. Late 1950s Stanley Jack plane. Clean it up, sharpen the iron, and put it to work.

Steven is likely on the right track. My tendency is to mostly ignore planes made after type 13. (no ring around the knob)

Most of the later planes to cross my path are more crimped than that one.
