Brissonnet Soucoupe Roulante (1955)

Very orginal car, never restored.

Paul Vallée was a wealthy industrialist with a complex and interesting personality and who could anticipate novel ideas well before anyone else it seems. He ran a successful transport business, married into wealth, and opened a mechanical shop called Société Industrielle de Constructions et de Réparation des Automobiles Francaises (S.I.C.R.A.F.). He founded and ran a successful grand prix team, the Écurie France, which fielded the magnificent Talbot-Lago T26 racing cars driven by legendary drivers like Louis Chiron. However, he regarded Grand Prix racing not as an end in itself, but as a way of promoting his other businesses, scooters included.

Vallée had anticipated the widespread need for a scooter during the post-war recovery period very early on, but it was overtaken by Vespa and Lambretta, who took the idea a great deal further. The Paul Vallée scooter won enthusiastic praise, and it was an idea he refined continually until the 1955 introduction of the Paul Vallée Chantecler at the Paris Salon of 1955.
