All Cars Charly(2)

Actually no!  I wondered who would be first to say that.
It goes without saying that is what it's based on, but that's not what the puzzle car is.

I can see where you're coming from but I'm afraid that's not what the puzzle car is either!

Actually I have fallen for some 'Net mis-information and it transpires my photo is not what it purports to be and is in fact an All Cars Charly, as it appears to be.
I thought it had another name, made perhaps under licence, but it doesn't.
So you get your point Alvis1 and it's solved!
Well done.

The name I had was Cyclomoteur Carrosse - which I am reliably informed by someone whose French is better than mine simply means 'Bodied Scooter', although that was shown as its name on the website where I obtained the picture.

It's not unusual for cars to gain different names at different stages in their lives hence I didn't question the accuracy of that name.  Googling it will show you instantly where I got the info from and you can see it's an easy error to make!

Historical accuracy is not the primary purpose of that site.
