I've never even heard of it, which is not surprising.  When was it and where did it compete?  Presumably it was a competition car

It was one of the aerodynamically efficient cars produced by Charles Deutsch after he split from René Bonnet. It had an 1130 cc Peugeot engine and raced at Le Mans and at other French circuits in 1966/67. The aerodynamicist Robert Choulet cut his teeth on these cars before going on to greater things with Matra, Porsche, Ligier, Alfa Romeo etc, including the famous 'teapot' Ligier JS5. Here are the results for the car on the Racing Sports Cars site:

Thanks, Tim - that is even more obscure than I thought.
