Not quite a highway cruiser.

For one point, please respond and identify this car.

According to my source not from 1958.
The cloth top was part of many Ardex. I'm looking for something not shared by the other Ardex.

I have another year. It is a prototype, but that is not what I am after.

It's not about the engine. The date of build is earlier according to my source, although I have a little doubt about it, but who am I to criticize a René Bellu?

Not 1952 and not a plywood body, but a closer look at the body material might lead to the answer.

Yes, it is an aluminium body. Have another try at the year, the car looks younger than it is supposed to be.
Locked for you again.

One more try and you will have reached the goal, I guess.  ;)
