Lot no. 36
1919 Avions Voisin Type C1 No reserve Titre de circulation canadien Châssis n°10835 - Provenance intéressante - Très bel état de conservation - Premier jalon de la production des Automobiles Voisin - Sans réserve Sous la marque "Avions Voisin", Gabriel Voisin, fort du succès de la fabrication de bombardiers lors de la première guerre mondiale, commence à construire des automobiles à partir de 1919. La C1, premier modèle de sa conception, fût fabriquée environ 1200 exemplaires entre 1919 à 1924. Elle était équipée d'un moteur sans soupape 4 cylindres de 3969 cm3 (18HP), développant 78 chevaux. Conçue comme un équipement de grand luxe destiné à une clientèle exigeante et raffinée, la C1 fut très prisée par les grands de ce monde dont la cour royale de Yougoslavie et la République française! L'exemplaire présenté aurait été livrée neuf au Sultan du Maroc en 1919, carrossé en torpédo. Peu de temps après, il serait revenu en France pour être carrossé en coupé chauffeur. C'est lors de la guerre 39/45 et l'occupation du Maroc, qu'il aurait été transformé en véhicule utilitaire dont témoignent certains stigmates tels que les ressorts de camion permettant de porter un fort chargement. Ensuite, cette C1 demeura plus de 60 ans dans une remise à Tanger avant d'être découverte par son propriétaire actuel. Cette voiture est remarquable par l'originalité de tous ces composants. Bien que dépourvue de la partie arrière de sa carrosserie d'origine, elle demeure un exemplaire très rare et particulièrement authentique. Elle mérite de recevoir une carrosserie torpédo comme à son origine, peu onéreuse, et dont l'adaptation sera aisée. Canadian title Châssis n°10835 - Interesting provenance - Very nice original condition - First step of the Automobile Voisin production - Sans réserve Gabriel Voisin began to produce automobiles in 1919 in Issy-les-Moulineaux, near to Paris, relying on the success of his military aircraft production during WWI. The automobile on offer is one of his very first models the C1, built from 1919 until 1924, in over 1200 units. The C1 was equipped with a 4 cylinder, 3969 cc valveless engine, producing 78 HP. Automobiles Voisin were designed for those who appreciated refinement and prestige. Gabriel Voisin's automobiles were in much demand by the most discerning customers such as the royal court of Yugoslavia and the French Republic! The example in the sale is believed to have been first delivered to the Sultan of Morocco in 1919, shortly after which it supposedly was sent back to France to have its original 'torpedo' body replaced by a 'coupé chauffeur' body. During WWII the C1 was transformed to be used as a service vehicle, signs of which remain today such as the heavy duty rear springs made to carry heavy loads. After the war the car remained in storage for over 60 years in Tangiers until it was discovered by its current owner. This C1 is in a remarkably original state, composed of virtually all its original and authentic parts and equipment. Although it no longer retains its original body, it would be the perfect candidate to receive a torpedo rebody at a quite reasonable cost to become a welcome participant in many classic automobile events.
