Was the base  car sold at the same time as the Austin 8?

My source give an other Austin base ! But I think that it is all the same an Austin 8 !
"In 1946, Joseph Figoni built a special car based on an Austin Seven for his son Claude, who now had a license. The young man Claude Figoni at the steps of the Grand Palais for the Salon de l’Auto in 1947 "
