Hurrah!
Is it a French record car?

Not french, not a record car but a car it is!

Oh! Some progress then.
It doesn't look like the thing one would offer for everyday use, even in those times, so if it is not a record runner then maybe it's a racing car built primarily for oval tracks?

This car was not developed for races...

Now I can see why you put it directly to the Pro section...

American?

Somehow it looks like it's got front wheel drive and rear wheel steering...

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #17 on:** August 12, 2009, 06:19:56 PM »

That is not the interesting part...(and it is not rerported in any source $:-\$ )

DynaMike · « **Reply #18 on:** August 12, 2009, 06:26:14 PM »

Maybe the car is often published on the web because of its owner (who might be the man standing next to it) ?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #19 on:** August 12, 2009, 06:30:09 PM »

The car was invented by that man, and despite the appareance, is quite unusual, for the 20s.
