Earlier!
It's French indeed, though...

The brand name still lives on, but not for cars?

Allemano · « **Reply #9 on:** January 03, 2010, 06:59:59 AM »

The donor's still in business the brand has gone for a long time.

What? Let me see if I got it straight: the car was built by a company that no longer exists but the company that built the donor is still alive? Than the deceased company who created this vehicle is french, but the donor's isn't?

Allemano · « **Reply #21 on:** January 05, 2010, 12:18:10 PM »

Simple like that!

Joao Gois · « **Reply #22 on:** January 06, 2010, 08:19:06 AM »

Is this just a french coachbuilt car or something deeper, like just having the engine or the chassis from a foreign company and the rest built under a new "badge"?

Allemano · « **Reply #23 on:** January 06, 2010, 08:28:57 AM »

not actually from a "foreign" company. It's a little different – you will see later.... "under a new badge" is not right, though not entirely wrong....
Indeed a coachbuilt car, but guess made by an authorized coachbuilder...

Joao Gois · « **Reply #24 on:** January 06, 2010, 09:03:06 AM »

Right, right, It would be something like a Bugatti Gangloff, right? A coachbuilder that usually made bodies for the company or something more lime Mercedes and AMG?
