1922 Voisin C3<\/h1>\n

The C3 replaced Voisin’s first car, the C1 in 1922. It introduced cantilever springs on the rear axle and optional front brakes in 1924<\/span><\/p>\n

Voisin produced over 1700 examples of the C3 from 1922 until 1927. Notable clients included the President of the French Republic and the Crown Prince of Japan.<\/p>\n

Our feature car is a recreation of the C3S driven at Strasbourg by Henri Rougier.<\/p>\n

The car was made by Phillipe Moch from a C5 chassis that had history as a C3S. It was acquired by the Mullin\u00a0Automotive Museum in 2009.<\/p>\n
