A dark body on red wheels looks dynamic.

For one point, please respond and identify this car and its coachbuilder.

It is a GENESTIN type GS8 1928 with a body J, Besset in Annonay.
This car belonged to the Museum "Automobilmuseum Stainz Diashow" in Austria.
It was recently sold for from Russia.

Welcome back, GV!

You are right, and you even corrected the mistake in the auctioneer's blurb. They had the coachbuilder as Pessel.  :o

A well-earned point for you.

The Génestin were manufactured 7 kilometers from my home: so that helps ;)
