HISTORY: Mr Pecheux bought this car to travel mainly from Cannes to the ski station La Foux d'Allos. He was a ski instructor but he got badly sick and his car always stayed stored in a basement of a building in Cannes. It remained there for several years unused after the death of its owner. The widow contacted a scrap yard in Cannes to remove and crush it. The employee tasked with this job had the presence of mind to persuade the owner to put it up for sale instead.
