Yes Oguerrerob! Congratulations  ;)


Antoinette was a short-lived (1903-1912) French manufacturer of light gasoline engines. Antoinette also became a builder of distinctively graceful, record-breaking monoplane aircraft flown by Hubert Latham (1883-1911) and Rene Labouchere.

The company, led by Leon Levavasseur (1863-1922) and based in Puteaux, also displayed a car with a 32hp V-8 engine and hydraulic clutches, instead of a gearbox and differential, at the 1906 Paris Salon de l'Automobile ( This one ).
