It does. However, it is not a Corvette.

I don't see much of a grille opening; is it rear-engined?

Yes, it's a special, built by FASA on 4CV mechanicals. What was the car sold as?

My dear friends,

The solution is now "coma gros" ??

You must all be really kidding

How can a car be sold as "large coma", this must must have been a nick but not a model....

I guess large coma referred to the limited power available.

I do not want to spoil the fun we're having here but I'd like to see your sources.

Awaiting your comments

Cheers

Thank you

nice german site, I didn't know it....


"4CV built in Spain known under the name of “Coma-Large”, and restored recently."

this is what it says: "known under the name"

So what is a "Large Coma"? something what makes us and potential customers yawn?

I have placed a question on this particular model on a spanish forum. I wonder if they will give an answer.

Cheers

Something to aspire to while driving across either Kansas OR Nebraska!    :lmao:
