Je suppose que ça ne nous apprend rien du millésime du véhicule (car je suppose — encore — que ces nouvelles immatriculations furent appliquées aux véhicules déjà immatriculés "à l'ancienne", non ?). Mais nous sommes bien dans les Alpes-Maritimes. Ouais ben non, pas forcément. En tout cas, http://plaque.free.fr/eur-f/f-1950-2004.html ne le dit pas. -- Last edit: 2015-09-19 13:35:36

Yes, they are clues for certain, as are the "chromed" headlamps. (1937+, if I remember correctly.) A tractionist shall identify this one painlessly. -- Last edit: 2015-09-19 22:19:53
