1961 Renault 4CV 'Jolly' beach car (Ghia-style coachwork)
- Colour
- Red
A 1961 Renault 4CV fitted with extremely rare Jolly-style open beach-car coachwork, one of an estimated 50 such conversions believed to have been carried out on the 4CV platform rather than the more typical Fiat 500 or 600. The Jolly concept originated with Italian coachbuilder Ghia as a compact hotel and resort runabout; this example presents in red with a striped fabric surrey top, wicker seating, and whitewall tyres, and has undergone a cosmetic restoration to its current condition.
