It is a Citroen by Bertoni, yes, but not for the original DS, more a derivative of it.
So, locked for you to say what the project was (either name would do) and from when it dates, for the point?

Dates from the fifties to early 1964, when Bertoni died, and is known as the DSport or Projet S which was based on a lightweight DS with various proposed engines,2-stroke,V6,V8,but slowly transformed into a Grand Tourer which went into production as the SM.

That's about the long and the short of it and you've given me both names it might be known under, although no extra point for that!
