You say you only
think it's French.
Is it's engine definitely French?
I later confirmed that it was French, read the puzzles in full
The fact that initially you only thought it was French rules out all the well known French makes and suggests a niche builder
Did the builder produce his own engine or did he use a proprietary engine?
it's an engine taken from another French manufacturer
Road car based engine?
Yes
pros

Gima Grand Sport 1100 cyclecar; sorry to correct you: CIME engine
Sorry to Allan L, but I understood he was asking if the car was CIME. For the type of engine, I did not have the information. Here's an old puzzle solved by you, fromwien, and which gives you yet another point
Thank you so much, 'Bertrand'

My question was "Perhaps it's a CIME-engined Derby " which I thought was clear enough
