Laugier has discovered that 2 cars, called Type 57S45, were built on the Type 59 and not Type 57S chassis (2.60m rather than 2.98m). any use?

The car with jean at the wheel is a 59 chassis. This car has nothing to do with the car listed as Torpedo, which is what that American thing with the magnesium body and rivets is trying to emulate. The car jean is driving is an enigma, but it has 50b/59 features visible (oil cooler, brakes). Sexy looking car though.
