4- your earlier reply to pnegyesi suggests that this coachbuilder was active for less than ten years, do you confirm this?

and is this a Fiat chassis?
Title: Re: Coachbuilt Puzzle
Post by: Maxmotor on October 06, 2010, 11:17:42 AM

Thanks!

I called the Biscaretti Museum today, but all cars are in storage and my English and their Italian couldn't communicate.

There were about 40 coachbuilders in Levallois-Perret, so far I researched about 25. Problem is I don't have the complete list, so I'll need some more help - unless someone else finds it first. So a lame question, does the first letter of the name of the coachbuilder is in the A-L range?
