Gordini, Paris, France.  This car was apparently raced in the 1950 Le Mans 24 hours by the two great Argetine drivers Jean-Manuel Fangio and Froilan Gonzalez.  Unfortunately it retired after 13 hours and 95 laps with ignition problems.  The other works Gordinis also retired.  It had a supercharged 1.5 litre 4 cylinder engine.  During the 1950 Le Mans it was bodied as a coupé and had the number 33 but like many racing cars was modified over the years.
