Public exhibition on June 27th from 10 to 12 am and 2 to 6pm and June 28th from 10 to 12 am
From the former collection of Alexis DREYE

This is a one of a kind « Passe Partout » campervan based on a Renault 1000kg R2065 converted by Digue. This gorgeous campervan has cream paintwork and would have been delivered in 1953 in the Ardennes before it was acquired by Alexis DREYE and entered the collection. His family is very attached to this vehicle as they travelled all around France with it during the 1960’s and 1970’s. The interior was entirely renewed by Alexis DREYE and features a large bed, a bathroom and a kitchen. This campervan is still fitted with a Frégate engine and a four speeds manual gearbox, and is able to achieve a top speed of 80 kilometres/ hour.

- Charming campervan
- One of the very few Digue conversions still in existence
- The ideal vehicle for retro-camping events

Lancée en 1947, la fourgonette de 1000 kg à cabine avancée Renault allait devenir le véhicule utilitaire de sa catégorie le plus vendu en France. Il s’agit d’un véhicule particulièrement robuste, doté d’un châssis séparé et d’une transmission aux roues arrières. La motorisation est issue de la Frégate, elle aussi solide et fiable. Véritable machine à tout faire, elle fut utilisée par de très nombreux corps de métiers, tels qu’artisans, livreurs, pompes funèbres, elle fut même employée dans l’armée française en déclinaison 4x4 ! Quelques rares conversions en camping car ont également permis aux familles françaises de profiter pleinement des premiers congés payés.

Pierre Digue est un carrossier établi au 74 Rue du Commerce, Paris XVè. Il se lance dès 1945 dans la construction de remorques avant de travailler sur des projets plus ambitieux dès 1950. Une de ses créations les plus remarquables sera le camping car baptisé « Passe-Partout » basé sur les camionnettes Renault 1000 puis 1400 kilogrammes. L’élégante carrosserie ainsi que l’aménagement sont réalisés directement chez Digue. Ce dernier en assura également la promotion, avec la participation à de nombreux rallyes et expositions. A la fois particulièrement habitable, il était également très confortable, un important travail ayant été porté sur l’isolation thermique de l’habitacle.

L’exemplaire que nous vous proposons est un de ces camping car « Passe-Partout ». Il fut mis en circulation en 1953 et est basé sur un châssis Renault 1000kg Type R 2065. Ce très beau camping car de couleur crème aurait été vendu dans les Ardennes avant d’entrer dans la collection d’Alexis DREYE. Au sein de sa famille, ce véhicule est un vecteur sentimental de premier ordre ; il véhicula Mr. Et Mme DREYE aux quatre coins de la France durant les années 1960 et 1970. L’aménagement intérieur avait été revu par M. DREYE, qui l’équipa d’un grand lit deux places, d’un coin cuisine et d’une salle de bains. Ce camping car est toujours équipé d’un moteur Frégate et d’une boite de vitesses à quatre rapports permettant d’atteindre les 80 km/ h.

- Un camping car à l’allure charmante
- Une des rares transformations par Digue encore existantes
- L’outil ideal pour des sorties retro-camping
