That is a Boitel - a 1948 Boitel 3 CV Populaire, I believe.

You seem to know more than me. All I know is that it had a 400 cc engine, was presented at the Salon de Paris from 1946 to 1949, and never produced.

Well, that would be about the first time I knew more than someone else around here. Now it remains to be seen whether what I "know" is correct...

It looks bigger in this angle.

And what's there I see on the trunk? A spare wheel, a la 1957 Imperial?
