Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

3 carb engine, Cotal gearbox. 5 new silver painted wire wheels, skirts, lefthand drive. Awful repaint over who knows what. Worn but basically sound original interior. Doors close well. Runs and drives. Needs comprehensive attention but could be a reasonable project if left in largely original condition.

Market commentary

French cars have been growing in popularity in the US and this one has every intrinsic attribute except convertibility in a highly original package. The sensible choice for the new owner is to leave as much as possible untouched except for paying close attention to the bodywork. If the temptation of a full restoration can be resisted it should prove to have been bought right.
