Dubonnet from 1932 ; engine and frame came from an Hispano H6C, with Dubonnet's own suspension. First shown as a naked frame at the Paris Auto Show 1932 ; this body came a few months later.

I forgot the model name, which ( I believe ) was simply Dubonnet 46 CV

That's the car Franck. It is the Dubonnet 8 litre of 1932.
I agree I don't think there was a specific model name.
