As it has a Ghia-Aigle body maybe it's

DYNA PANHARD GRAN SUISSE (Carrozzeria) GHIA ?

Does he have to put an O and two identical letters instead of the XXX in order to form an Italian word? I hope, he'll make it  :D

Hmmm, I´ve got to make a kind of an excuse.

I did some research on that car:
at least one of those must have been produced as a Convertible and one as a Coupé.

And despite the fact that the coachbuilding company is just called "GHIA" in the ad, I´m quite sure now that this has been a "Ghia-Aigle" body...

Now you´ve got another chance to give me the correct and full name of this
Dyna Panhard XXXXXX Ghia
(and do not count the Xs - it is two names that are still missing)

In the Pagneux book, those two Ghia-Aigle (coupe and convertible) are mentioned, but without a photo. Meanwhile the Ghia coupe is pictured, and it looks very different.

There is a 1954 Panhard Dyna Cabrio mentioned. Its french registration was 1565 DA 75.

And there are some pics of the coupé around.

Brochures and drawings at that time deliberatly changed proportions to make the product much sleeker and attractive...

Here´s the sole surviving Coupé:

<<< Link removed; Picture added >>>

Compare it to the ad and you will find that those are kind of brothers...

The Ghia-Aigle archive only mentions a Panhard Dyna Cabriolet "Grand Sport" in 1953.
