Chappe et Gessalin les sportives CG Simca

In 1946, Amédée Gessalin and brothers Abel, Albert, and Louis Chappe founded the Chappe et Gessalin coachbuilding company, which specialized in manufacturing sports cars following a suggestion from Jean Gessalin. They worked primarily for Alpine, Panhard, and Deutsch & Bonnet. In 1966, having lost most of their clients, they decided to become car manufacturers, producing sports cars with Simca engines.
