Skip -

it's clear you have done a good deal of research on the Automoto marque already

would encourage you to keep exploring as it is one of those vintage french marques with numerous examples to search out online
a good deal of the marque history has been covered in forum & blog posts; there is moderately good documentation as compared with some other gaulic marques 'o yesteryear

don't miss the francophone fora - they are a marvelous resource...

i visit Tonton, velo-retro-a-go-go & velo-retro-course at proboards

for readers with Chrome on their device you can ask it to translate for you

note on BB spindle -

can tell from its finish in the photos that it is a good deal later than the cycle
verot cotterless spindles of the era of the cycle had a different finish and a distinctive two-digit marking on one of the taper flats:



thanks very much for sharing this project; enjoying following along as you move forward...
