Ivan verified it is a concept car made by Citroën. Many informations here if you speak French :

A variety of cool stuff from Fantomatik75 blogspot




Never seen a primitive street sweeper before? Me neither


1936 Chicago, why aren't these viable parking stuctures now?

Looks like a knife sharpener, door to door, and probably early 1910's or 1920's

Unknown type of classic pre-1920's

Cool things from Underground Velo Blogspot

Looks like an enjoyable experience!
Wow. Where did it go? Wouldn't this be a car show stopper if you drove in with it?

Not the most elegant design, but I think the blunt look of serviceabity is spot on for a mobile car repair type of business

Hudson hot rod, but doesn't the hood and fenders evoke a Cadillac look?
