Established studio effort, or the work of an individual/independent designer?

I'd say yes.

As far as I know independent at that time

YES!

Godfroy was applying for work in 1978. I imagine this could have been created during that time as a way to showcase his talent. Perhaps the apparent lack of creativity (strong resemblance to earlier work by Gandini/Bertone/Giugiaro/etc) contributed to the turn-downs he received from Citroen and others?
