I've found this photo. I know it's not the same car but it's funny to know isn't the only one to use this same way!

It's homebuilt indeed, but I have no technical information.

Although I've got no technical details, I'm very certain that it was not built on a VW chassis.

He must have been in a hurry to move it, because this photo of the same address 2 years later shows a brand new housing block, which still stands today.

The car looks a bit like the Voisin Biscooter, the second model.

Did he build the car in his flat? And the picture shows when he tries to take the car on the road?
