It looks very similar to the 2 pre-series Panhard Juniors ordered by Panhard for the october 1951 Paris Motor Show and for Panhard's showroom at the Etoile to the coachbuilder Di Rossa who had realised a very first prototype in june 1951.But there are noticeable differences here : altough the windshield is as high as that of the pre-series cars ( contrary to the later juniors that had a very low one) , it is fixed whereas on early juniors it was a foldable roadster windshield .The grille is also different from the Dyna X one style.So interesting to hear comments from one of the numerous Panhardistes afficionados |

It reminds me of one of the toy cars on Robot Chicken |

The first Di Rosa prototype only had a door on the left side. The second one was very close to the production model. But this is rather a 1954+ (new 'Panhard' writing on front of the bonnet and no name on the hubcaps) Junior Roadster (no exterior door handles) with some alternations: too big windscreen, trim on the doors, new grille, bigger softtop, bigger bumpers, vent door between door and front wheel arch... |
