I've been poking around the 'net looking for pics of obscure makes. How obscure? You tell me!

Is it a Scott?
There seem to be several cars called Scott, but this isn't one of them.

Another one I've found several ways to spell, is it a Colombe (or possibly Columbe)?

It appears to bear the name of the town where it was built (without the final S), in the "auto belt' of the near suburbs of Paris. Although a densely populated area, you can see that there were possibly no more tha 15 telephone lines in the whole city.
