Not entirely sure what it's based on; I suppose it could be a Panhard Dyna.
It's not French-built however.

I think it's the C.A.M. Cabriolet by Carl Amesmeier, Munich (Germany) from 1957.

That's right, it is.
I did see your name on the website where I found this so I wondered what had happened to you!
It also mentioned that the car might be known as a 'Georgano' too; do you know anything about that?
The site also mentioned that it was powered by a 2-cylinder engine but didn't say which one; do you know the answer to that question too?  That's why I thought it could possibly be Panhard-engined.

According to some internet source it might have been equipped either with a Lloyd 293cc or a Zündapp 598cc engine.

I´ve scanned those pics in the late 1990´s from some 1955 ams-magazines.
So I´m quite sure it´s 1955 and not 1957.  ;)
It has been powered by a 300cm³ Lloyd two-stroke engine.
