All Cars Charly(2)

Actually no!  I wondered who would be first to say that.
It goes without saying that is what it's based on, but that's not what the puzzle car is.

I can see where you're coming from but I'm afraid that's not what the puzzle car is either!

Actually I have fallen for some 'Net mis-information and it transpires my photo is not what it purports to be and is in fact an All Cars Charly, as it appears to be.
I thought it had another name, made perhaps under licence, but it doesn't.
So you get your point Alvis1 and it's solved!
Well done.

The name I had was Cyclomoteur Carrosse - which I am reliably informed by someone whose French is better than mine simply means 'Bodied Scooter', although that was shown as its name on the website where I obtained the picture.

It's not unusual for cars to gain different names at different stages in their lives hence I didn't question the accuracy of that name.  Googling it will show you instantly where I got the info from and you can see it's an easy error to make!

Historical accuracy is not the primary purpose of that site.

Though the Charly was known under different names.
