Andre Denis, from France, based his 500 on a Danvignes sports car frame using transverse leaf springs for suspension. A fan cooled Zundapp KS 600 engine was mounted at the front and drove through a Zundapp four speed gearbox, and then a long propeller shaft to a bevel gear on the back axle, which had no differential. The car was particularly large by 500 standards and failed to achieve any success.
