The base-car should be a Fiat 600 Multipla, but I've been wondering for years who built it...  ???

The car is a Fiat 600 T multipla based that took part in the carovane of Tour the France 1961, together with two Renault bodied by Pourtout;  this Fiat, anyway, has certainly not been bodied by the French coachbuilder.
As five of these care took part in '65 Tour with Esso or Total (I don't remember) sponsor, and they were called the "Boneschi Circus", I suppone this car is a Fiat 600 T Multipla Boneschi, from 1961  (probably a 600 D, with 767 cc. engine).

Also my sources tell that the coachbuilder is French (but don't tell its name).
Can it indeed be Pourtout?

Left : an other Estafette by Pourtout
Right : Puzzle car Fiat 600T Multipla based ( with Citroen Ami6 headlights )
I think that the 2 cars are made by Pourtout   ???

At this point I think I have lost a point I had in my pocket yet....My source says Circus Boneschi and so I went wrong way...the two cars are so similar they are probably from the same coachbuilder, Pourtout.

I'm not sure I really deservet the point... Because targhedifetto knows more than me (I only guessed)...
But, can I have those pictures at a higher resolution, if available?
I'm very happy to have added another little tile to my knowledge about those cars... In fact, I didn't listed it in the first edition of my book "Fiat 600 M fuoriserie" because I was not able to find the coachbuilder.

If it could help, the yellow Estafette of the second picture, is known as "la Bulle" (The Boule).
I'm sorry but I cannot copy the pictures from the site that's my source, and I cannot link because of the rules of AP.
