Chapron?  Also, is this a pre-1956 model, because the Domaine was introduced in 1956?
Title: Re: Wendax 4379
Post by: Wendax on April 24, 2025, 01:27:30 PM
Not Chapron, but built before 1956

Was the coachbuilder you are looking for already active in the 1920s?
Title: Re: Wendax 4379
Post by: Wendax on May 03, 2025, 08:06:50 AM
I don't know. It existed until around the year 2000.

That's right, one more point for you. The break was built for a Renault dealer from Compiègne in 1955.
