Yes well done and it is an elegant little car.
Another point for you.
Here's another two views -

According to René Bellu the bottom picture shows a Panhard Junior Cabriolet bodied by F. Vivez of Bordeaux, exhibited at Enghien in 1957
-
According to the book on Panhard Dyna history by Bernard Vermeylen it is by Victor Guesdon (see extract below) but I'm unsure which one is incorrect..... :-\
Perhaps Vivez was responsible for the modifications or the restoration?
-
told you. there is also an evening pic where halts on a stand...
-
Thanks qwaszx.
I'm assuming the car was built by Victor Guesdon in 1952 and modified by F. Vivez in 1957.

Panhard Dyna Junior by Pichon & Parat / Vivez c '54 ?

Panhard Dyna Junior by Pichon & Parat / Vivez c '54 ?
It is a Panhard Dyna, yes, but the builder is actually unknown.
I only know of one picture of this car on the 'Net, which is on a well-known French site where the poster says he long thought it was built by an obscure coachbuilder near Bordeaux, but a Panhardiste has now told him this is not correct and it still isn't known who built it.
The car has survived but is in a very sorry state somewhere..
I think we'll call it solved because we're never going to find out who built it!
-
At least we know that the picture was taken in Enghien-les-Bains. :)

It seems to be quite a popular location for photographic cars like this!

Another picture. I had it as a Panhard Dyna from 1952 bodied by Vivez. Unfortunately, I can't find the page again. Who knows ?
-
That's good, thanks. Vivez might be right - I would say they are quite obscure. Any idea where they were situated?
-
Bordeaux
