Just a chassis, but that might help.

For one point, please respond and identify this car, the year it was built and the three persons mainly involved.

My first guess would be a late 16 h.p. Turner-Miesse but that's only two people. Same for Gardner-Serpollet, so I'll give up for the moment.

It's not a Turner-Miesse nor a Gardner-Serpollet, but you are heading in the right technical direction.
Not all of the three men involved appear in the car's name.

Yes but I can't think of another European maker, apart from the two I named and Miesse on his own, which isn't really different!
