Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1954 Renault Frégate coach by Chapron is a rare find, being one of the very first Chapron Coaches made and the only known one with a 3-crossbar grille like the 1953 Salon prototype. It requires a complete restoration, presenting enthusiasts with a historically and stylistically interesting project, featuring a unique design, blue leather interior, and water-green paintwork.

Condition
3
The car is presented as a complete base to be restored, indicating that it requires significant work to bring it to a presentable and functional condition. The presence of water-green paintwork and blue leather interior, while moving, suggests that these may not be original and might need attention during restoration. The fact that it is sold without a technical inspection (contrôle technique) also points towards the need for mechanical and safety work.
