The Farman 1923 A6A Super – Sport: This interesting streamlined design was built by the Farman company of France and was introduced in 1919 at the Paris Salon. The model A6, carried with a 6.6 liter six – cylinder engine, with an ohc cylinder head driven by a vertical shaft and bevel gears and a stated 200 b.h.p.

The company stated that it was one of two racing cars of this model they built. Does anyone have any knowledge of if they actually were raced ? Anyone have any info or photos of the 121" Grand Prix car?? We have a very interesting post about it filled with photos @ The Farman 1923 A6A Super – Sport | The Old Motor

Two days gone and no response; you must have stuffed the regular's with this one.
Interesting and sporty though it may have been, something makes me think it would have made a decent sort of hearse.
And those handles along the sides? Would've been handy as a sort of burial medium.

Don't condemn it until you have looked at the other photos, as it is quite similar to the famous Renault "Racing Sedan".

They are plank fenders.......
