Matford?, Chenard&Walcker? ...elle ressemble aussi à une Vivaquatre de 37, mais plein de détails ne collent pas

This is an interesting document because it is a Lincoln Zephyr 1937 distributed by Matford in France.These could be recognised by the additional large headlights mounted lower on the front fenders because the " Service des Mines " did not accept the original sealed beams from the oval lenses.This unit has also a typical european roof rack.

Could it be named as Matford in such a case?

D'après moi, non, parceque la gamme Matford existait. Mais on pourrai mettre [importé par Matford France].

je suggère plutôt d'adopter la même logique que pour les versions US d'européennes avec un (F) dans la rubriqe "extra info"

C'est un peu comme les Jeep importées et vendues par Renault dans les années 80 ?

It remains a Lincoln Zephyr and the ( F) seems a good idea

Hi, there wasn't any sealed beam before 1940 model year. Cars were sold as Lincoln.

Only american Fords were sold as Matford in France in 1937/38. Streamlined headlamps were changed to satisfied " les mines " on those cars. About sealed beam headlamps, most of the american automobiles manufacturers began to use them for the 1940 model year. They had a standardized round shape and from now on, except for some little carmakers like Graham Paige, the automobile industry will not design streamlined headlamps anymore.
