Hi Saco:

At this point, I have no idea about the coachbuilder of your Citroen but may I ask if it might be the same coachbuilder that did this Citroen T23 Corbillard?

They look very similar.  Sadly, I never could find out who built the Corbillard either but it would at least give me and others a chance to look further.

Bill
Cheers
Bill

Thank You, Saco!!

Did not help to solve the puzzle but it solved one of my own mysteries with the name of the corbillard coach builder.

I will keep looking for the builder of the TA.

Bill
Cheers
