Another one from the series: How is it possible nobody posted it before?
What is this?
1 point for you.

How is it possible I have no idea what series you are referring to?

nicanary · November 21, 2015, 06:36:07 AM

I'm confused, but acknowledge that that state of mind isn't unusual for me these days.

I don't recognise it as a Brooklands car - is it French?

Paul Jaray · November 21, 2015, 06:47:39 AM

Not French but it is probably based on a French car.

Paul Jaray · December 09, 2015, 12:38:01 PM

Not impossible to solve

Does this mean that the donor car is not known ?

Paul Jaray · December 09, 2015, 01:38:38 PM

It is supposed to use a particular engine, but I do not know for sure.
That engine is from a French car.

Proprietary engine, or from a well-known race car maker?

oko94 · December 09, 2015, 05:30:06 PM

Straight four engine ?

Salmson?

Paul Jaray · December 10, 2015, 12:42:11 AM

Yes, it could be a Salmson engine.

Was this car designed by Emile Petit?

oko94 · December 10, 2015, 05:31:50 AM

Bespoke chassis or is it based on an existing Italian chassis ?

Is the name San Sebastian involved with this car?

Paul Jaray · December 10, 2015, 06:26:08 AM

Nope.

Paul Jaray · December 19, 2015, 02:08:59 PM

I think this car is still out there.
The builders are not obscure names after all, but this is the only car they built.

oko94 · December 21, 2015, 03:16:14 AM

Are the builders known for other types of vehicles than cars (motorbikes, planes, boats...) ?
