Wendax · May 10, 2013, 02:00:47 AM

French, but no GN Salmson connection I know of.

Is this the french car with a mobile star engine to change gear?

Wendax · May 12, 2013, 05:00:20 AM

It doesn't have a star engine.

Wendax · May 19, 2013, 03:47:39 AM

up again

sixtee5cuda · May 19, 2013, 09:43:09 AM

Built before 1925?

Wendax · May 19, 2013, 09:45:24 AM

Yes

Allan L · May 26, 2013, 09:31:50 AM

Looks as if it might be an early S.A.R.A. 1100 of say 1923

Wendax · May 26, 2013, 09:45:29 AM

The time is about right, but there is no SARA connection, sorry.

4popoid · May 27, 2013, 11:21:28 PM

1921/22 Janoir?

Wendax · May 28, 2013, 02:11:02 AM

Not a Janoir

João · May 28, 2013, 05:23:14 PM

De Marçay Cyclecar?

4popoid · May 29, 2013, 01:47:26 AM

I think you may have a winner João. Good job!

Wendax · May 29, 2013, 02:09:21 AM

Sorry to say that the congratulations came too early. The De Marçay cyclecar looks similar to the puzzle car, but this one is of a different brand. Interesting though for me to see that there exists a De Marçay car in Germany.

4popoid · May 29, 2013, 04:03:16 AM

Well I guess I get another turn at bat after all. Might this be a Rally cyclecar from about 1922?
