Is this one of those cars built by Letourner et Marchand (or however you spell it!) to carry the reporters and photographers following the Tour de France and other cycle races? Based on a Peugeot?

SACO · January 26, 2012, 04:17:58 AM

Yes ,it's the "Tour de France " ,but not Peugeot !

So let's switch over to Bella Italia: is it a Fiat?

SACO · January 26, 2012, 07:32:45 AM

I think but I am not sure

I believe it's a Fiat bodied by Castagna and modified for TdF.

based on the 6C 1500E chassis :

SACO · January 26, 2012, 09:46:47 AM

Yes ! The car looks like a Fiat berlina 1400 or 1500e 1950 by Castagna !
Point for you !
