Did he make other cars? Or just this one? He sure was 'inspired' by the Mercedes 300SL ...

1949 Simca 8 by Vives, Bordeaux
Apart from the small typo (Vivez) that's the car.
The coachbuilder was F. Vivez Carrossier, Bordeaux who was active in the 1949-1958 period.
Yet another point for you.

I should have known that it's Vivez. Never trust a dealer's ad.
