It is an Oméga-Six, built in Boulogne-sur-Seine. First shown at the Salon du Paris in 1922, the 12 CV featured a 6 cylinder engine of 1996 cc (65 x 100 mm) with a single overhead camshaft and a double carburator. The engine was developped by Monsieur Gadoux, who also worked for Hispano-Suiza. In 1926, a 14 CV was added to the range, also with a 6 cylinder engine, but with 2.6 litre displacement (75 x 97 mm). The Oméga-Six had a good reputation because of their comfort and some victories at road races, but they were very expensive.

Well, a rest of doubt was left to me, when I posted the Oméga-Six "solution". The radiator seemed to be a Oméga-Six one. The Oméga-Six was based on the "Six" or "C Six G" of the Fabrique Alsacienne de Moteurs et Automobiles (Fama). The Six prototype also led to the Barron-Vialle. Is it one of those?

Now you're right! It's a Barron-Vialle indeed! Locked for you to find the year and the coachbuilder

I've seen a picture of a similarly bodied Barron-Vialle from 1927. So I try 1927 and body by Billeter et Cartier.

The year is close enough,it's from 1928..but not bodied by Billeter & Cartier.

Clue : by a carrossier that bodied a Delage D8 for the famous Chef Vettard of the Place Bellecour in Lyon.

Now it's super easy!

Then it is Candélarési, what would have been the next one on my list anyway, with Faurax et Chaussende being third.

Is the pictured car the unsuccessful Rallye Monte Carlo car?
