Title: Solved: Wendax 1796 - Doriot-Flandrin 6/8 CV Type E
Post by: Wendax on December 25, 2015, 02:43:29 AM
You want to sell your veteran car and are going to take the sales pictures, so you place it in front of those beautiful flowers of yours...
... and then you forget about the garbage cans in the background.

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

No idea about the car but what about a new image thread - cars with inappropriate backgrounds...
Might go and see what I can find in my collection...

1906 is correct, but it is not an Alcyon.

DFP ? (The Parant freres didn't join until 1908 according to my source, so maybe I'm wrong. Could be the 10/12 model)
Title: Re: Wendax 1796
Post by: Wendax on February 18, 2016, 04:11:20 AM
Yes, any ideas about the model?

I know there's no lock...but I hope nobody will jump...

I see that you modified your post. I will have a look at my notes tonight, as I am in doubt right now about it being a 1906 DFP. The year or the marque seems to be wrong.  :(

PM sent to Wendax (probably the same content as Paul's).
Title: Re: Wendax 1796
Post by: Wendax on February 18, 2016, 05:06:55 AM
Thanks for the additional information. It is in fact a Doriot-Flandrin, so jimjarron was right. Locked for him again to find the model.

I shouldn't have trusted the seller's description.  :(

c1906 Doriot-Flandrin 6/8hp type E?
Title: Re: Wendax 1796
Post by: Wendax on February 20, 2016, 06:00:50 AM
Exactly! One point for you.

What fooled me was the DFP emblem at the radiator.  ???
