It seems each of his cars used a different base.

Success in well known competitions?

Wendax · « **Reply #59 on:** October 13, 2021, 01:32:46 AM »

The car participated in some rallyes before it was transformed into an Aurelia GT lookalike, but I wouldn't call those rallyes well known.

Was it entered as a standard bodied Lancia Ardennes in these rallies?

1960s amateur rallies?

Earlier and I don't know whether just amateurs took part. Some must have taken it serious as you can see by another contestant:

Are those triangular graphics nautical 'burgees', which might indicate a coastal based rally?

Wendax · « **Reply #65 on:** October 13, 2021, 04:43:53 PM »

I don't think so. The rallye took place around 200 km away from the coast.

richard fridd · « **Reply #66 on:** October 14, 2021, 02:29:24 AM »

200km from the south french coast?

Wendax · « **Reply #67 on:** October 14, 2021, 03:24:50 AM »

No, from the Western one.

Wendax · « **Reply #68 on:** October 14, 2021, 03:28:38 AM »

After a second look: the Northern coast seems to be even closer.

Near to Paris?
