This is not really the right answer. This is the typ G7 Génestin with motor 1200cc CIME of my friend Daniel. This car was built in 1924 and she has participated in the race "les routes pavées du Nord" in 1924 and 1926 before entering the grand prize of La Marne in 1927 (for the grand prize, the front wings were absent). In 1933, it was rebodied by Bastien body. The current body is an interpretation of the version of "les routes pavées du nord.
I will try to put you pictures of different versions tomorrow.

This car currently resides in the Musée Automobile Reims Champagne, where it is identified as "1924 Genestin G6." It is described as having been rebodied by Carrosserie Bastien in 1933, recovered in 1997, and subsequently rebodied by its current owner to its 1926 Les Routes Pavées du Nord configuration.
