Amilcar Monoplace Decalee CO from 1926, six cylinders, 1097 cc, 197 HP, 200 km/h

The Amilcar was a French automobile manufactured from 1921 to 1940. Amilcar was founded in July 1921 by Joseph Lamy and Emile Akar. The name “Amilcar” was an imperfect anagram of the partners’ names. The business was established at 34 rue du Chemin-Vert in the 11th arrondissement of Paris.
