Castarede – 1948

The Castarede is a one-of-a-kind three-wheeler constructed by Pierre Castarede in post-WWII France. It utilizes a 1938 Gnome & Rhone motorcycle and the remains of an Amilcar. This beautiful creation was Castarede’s answer to his need for a vehicle during difficult times in France. The car remains in unrestored, original condition.
