When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

OUCH! You have to wonder why they cut up a sedan to build that instead of using a Ranchero? :-[ :-[

I believe there are old French (as in European) 1970s plates on the 58. there is an art deco 'Metro' (city railways) sign to the back which would lead us to believe this is in Paris. There was a French company that specialized in making 'movie camera' cars, and the cut up Citroen DS in the back is further hint. I can also spot a Peugeot 404 to the left and a 203 parked to the right. I don't really know about what is going on in that pic though.

It is an article about the "Passing of Bernard Chateau, the Gentleman with the Movie Camera Car" from  August 20, 2016.

I have attached the link below:

You can translate it with Google or click the English link after the title. (however, if you use the English button, the picture subtitles stay in french; if you use Google translate, the pics are in English) There is a series of photos with explanation as well as articles at the bottom of the page. If you look closely, there are scroll button next to them or you can wait for them to scroll. You can also click on the photos to enlarge and scroll as well.
