The last French marque dressed by Labourdette with a skiff body that I know is Peugeot, so that's my guess even if I don't recognise the radiator's profile.

Not a Peugeot.

I'm curious to know, is the skiff body on a 20's Peugeot, or are you referring to the Type 150? because I'd like to see a photo of a 20's Peugeot version.

Not that either.

I had already ruled out Sizaire Freres, but how about Sizaire Berwick?

Craig Gillingham · « **Reply #31 on:** December 11, 2013, 02:22:44 AM »

No, sorry.

It's from a very famous French company.

Yes the Peugeot I was talking about is the type 150, but I though it was possible that Labourdette made another one; for the same reason I guess Delage, even if the only Skiff Delage I know is different.

Craig Gillingham · « **Reply #33 on:** December 11, 2013, 02:48:26 AM »

I see, I thought it may have been a Type 156, which there are limited photos of. I understand that Type 150 with the skiff body is insured for some ridiculous figure, in the low millions, 2.5, I think.

I think SACO may be correct, but just in case he isn't: Unic?

Well done, yes it's a Farman. I originally asked for the model as well, but I'm not 100% sure of this now. I think it's a 1921 or early 1922 A6A, but identifying the make is enough for the point. There is supposed to be a Farman book coming out next year, this car might be in it and have these details.
