That's the car, though I have a later date for it (maybe just for the body?)
Locked for you to come up with it.

This has been very demanding on my O-Level French, but it seems that Robert Clabot operated just post war, particularly converting pre war cars, Citroen and one Delage. This car, which is well photographed, is apparently a 1939 car rebodied, as you suggest, in 1947. Is that the date you have?

Yes, that's exactly what I have.
Well done.
