What is this for a point?
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

Does it really have an engine or is it human-powered?

A bit of both, but yes, it does have an engine.

Ah, Sir Quiller, very good to have you back where you belong!

Mais oui, this is indeed the work of M. Michel Gaillot, and one of his sundry three-wheeled contraptions of the late 1970s.  Bravo.

Et alors, here is a view of the 49cc Le Capitoul from the front.  Enjoy!

Great! Never heard of that before, looks like a mixture of Bellier's Véloto and an Acoma Mini Comtesse.  ;D

I will try and find some more Gaillot images to upload for you Wendax, as he made some other 3-wheeler models as well!

Did he built the cars for others (commercial) or just for himself.

Thanks
