1953 PANHARD IE 45HL Mobile Studio
Original 1950s photograph of the mobile radio studio for the ORTF.
It was built on a 1952 Panhard 45HL chassis, with body constructed by Antem, and designed by Philippe Charbonneaux.
No doubt that this extravagant truck was constructed for publicity purposes too.
After it had been served as a studio for a few years it was bought by a circus.
In the 1970s it was bought back by Philippe Charbonneaux. After a restoration it became part of his private car collection.
In 2015 it was on display in Musée Automobile de Reims Champagne, Reims, during a special exposition about the creations of the French car designer Philippe Charbonneaux.
Taken from original 1950s picture, found in an interesting internet article by Tatra87 on curbsideclassic.com.
