Crikey fromwien, that shows some knowledge.
As far as I can see this car only appears on one site on the entire Internet, and that's a French family blog mainly devoted to photos and motorcycles.
Even Googling with the answer "Renault 4cyl by Jacques Ego 1959" fails to produce any result.
So how on earth did did you find that site without asking any questions? Is it one already known to you previously?
I do share Carnut's curiosity..
The AP team is a little concerned to say the least.. ???
It has been a long time ago, as I met some interesting people at the "Retromobile" in Paris, discussing with the editor of the book(s), "Constructeurs sans patente". Since this meeting in 2012, I am in very close connection with some of these persons, mainly interested in French specials. I can say by myself, I am an negligible and ignorant Rookie in this group of car-maniacs. They know about so many French specials, never seen and heard about before.
Got two pictures from them, about the Renault by Jacques Ego, some time ago.
I mainly take books and magazines (trust me, enormous library!), to solve puzzles,... As also my well-organized car data collection on my PC.
Don't like the internet. Not my thing. Takes too much time, with more than many wrong results. I only know a few car-pages with reliable content.
