To be honest I don't know what the body is made of.
Could be GRP or it could be aluminium.  I'll try to check.

I haven't been able to find out what it's made of.  Probably GRP.
The Pro's will know this one I'm sure..

Sorry, but the Arista Roadster is not Renault 4 CV-based, but it has Panhard Dyna mechanics.

I knew it was based on the Panhard, but I thought that I was wrong, given the previous post about 4CV.
Thanks  ;)

To the best of my knowledge all 1950s Arista's were Panhard-based, with aluminium bodywork, not GRP.  The front end of this one seems to be modified with a hint of Renault 4CV, but retaining its Panhard wheels.

Sorry, yes, my mistake.
I did know they were Panhard-based but got side-tracked..
Apologies (but it wasn't actually part of the question..)
