From the wheels, the car looks to be Renault R8-R10 based, and I'm guessing the Auto Show where it was presented is somewhere in North America. So, do you know if it is Canadian?
A car is for life, not just for Christmas.

Yes, it was presented in Canada.
Hmm, thought so as it does long vaguely familiar. This one might take a while...  ???

Was the Canadian Show held around 1967?

I know the year and the show, but that was too easy to find. I have tried looking for what it actually might be but have drawn a blank. I don't have any books on Canadian cars. I would agree that it is Renault-based going by the wheels but beyond that I have no idea.

On the top of the car, the sign: Edelweiss et GT Biard? Like the Witton GT (written on the top of the car) at the same Auto Show. The 1966 Quebec Auto Show

When I read the article it seems to be a car for competition. But the GT name suggests a road car.
Maybe somebody can ad more articles and or pictures to solve my problem.
