I am guessing that it is based on a 2CV?

1960 Mismaque 2CV, according to 'Toutes les Citroën' (René Bellu).

Le Squal? Tubular chassis, techniques of a 2CV, presented on the stairs of the Grand Palais (Salon de Paris) in October 1960, later it got the engine of a Simca Aronde P60, it went from one junkyard to another and now it has been recuilt (says Gazoline). Strange they write it as Squal, not Squale, the French word for Shark...

A nice shot of the car in period, and a couple to show how it looks now it has been restored. I think I preferred it in white but I'm just happy it still exists!
