I found a site with this very picture. There they say this was a Salmson with a body by Esclassan. But in Automobilia #50 (mai-juin 2001) the front page of 'l'Automobile' from August 1952 is shown with a slightly different Sabre-look-alike that is called a 1952 Salmson Randonnée by Esclassan...

This is indeed a creation by Esclassan on a Salmson chassis, presented in 1952 at the Paris Salon. In 1950 He presented another creation based on a Salmson.
Well done!

And it looks as if the whole rear is hinged behind the canopy and can be lifted upwards.
