I believe that car was built by Lyle Cherry of Texas, U.S.A..
A number of years ago a friend bought the Small Wonder car (the one that now resides in France).
We were trying to trace the history of the car and who built it.
I was on the phone with Lyle and mentioned it.
He said he had built it !
I described it some more and said it was painted with "Apricot Metalflake" (the car was give a cheap "Datsun" paint respray by my friend before selling it :-( ).
Anyway, Lyle said they built two of them and the chop top was the silver one !
After further examnination, my Friend's Small Wonder was not built by Lyle, but he did build a Small Wonder and Small Wonder Too (Silver Chop top) !
I had never seen pictures of either car until now, but I'm pretty sure that's it !
 Shocked
P.S. The headlight covers on the car in France are silver metalflake Gel-coat under the  black spraypaint !
