1949 Hotchkiss 686 S49 " Gascogne " No reserve Carte grise française Châssis n° 85472 Moteur n°12463 - Dans la même famille depuis les années 50 ! - Restauration de très haut niveau - Encore en rodage - 114 000 € de restauration ! - Sans réserve Présentée au Salon de Paris en octobre 1948, l'Hotchkiss 686 S49 disposait du classique moteur 6 cylindres en ligne de 3.5L, et la version 4 portes, 4 places, recevait la dénomination " Gascogne ".

L'exemplaire présenté est exceptionnel à plus d'un titre : en effet, il a été acquis par les grands-parents des actuelles propriétaires au début des années 50 et n'a jamais quitté la famille depuis lors.

Des photos d'époques prises dans le courant des années 50, montrent le fils de la famille, en permission, poser fièrement aux côtés de cette belle automobile.

C'est ce dernier qui a entrepris, au début des années 2010, de faire restaurer entièrement et sans considération de coût ce joyau familial.

Le résultat est exceptionnel, tant du point de vu...
