Unless she is a reeeeeally tiny woman, it looks too big to be a FJr.  It also looks like it was built out of a junkyard of production parts.

Djetset

Yes, it is a Formula Junior, so she must be very small!

Renault engine? Was it used in 1966?

Oops..didn't notice it is an FJ car. So, 1963?

Djetset

It is an FJ, and you are very close on the year, but I am not 100% certain about it using a Renault engine, although this is a strong possibility.

So this is a 1962 French formula junior car? Were any other cars made by this builder?

Djetset

Yes, it's a French FJ from 1962, and yes, other cars were made by this builder.

Probably an HB-Renault by Jacques and Guy Hampe? I have never seen a photo of it, so worth a try :)

Djetset

I almost wish it was an HB-Renault because I've never seen a photo of this car either, but sadly it's not.  :(

I have quite a few French Formula Juniors on my database.
Without wishing to go through them all one by one (I don't have images for them all), I'll try to narrow it down to the ones that I have seen.
Perhaps this is a S.I.R.M.A.C.

I have seen a plenty of French FJ cars, but none of them come from 1962 - this is what I'm stuck with here :)

The only 1962 French FJ I know of is the Collucci built by Vincent Collucci.
It had a Fiat engine.
Perhaps this is it?
