It's probably an later US import (rather an french-spec Pacer sold by Jean-Charles Automobiles back in the mid seventies) due to the orange indicators. About the plate, as you may know, french ones aren't issued by the authorities, but made by your friendly car dealer, car parts store, or key cutter. And most of the time, they don't have US-sized ones, so they use what fits.
