Ateliers de Carrosserie Broual (ACB) was a French automotive manufacturer active from 1982 to 1985, based in Courbevoie, France. The company was founded by M. Broual, who was also a museum director. ACB specialized in producing replicas of notable French coachwork from the postwar era, drawing inspiration from the craftsmanship of historical brands.
The replicas created by ACB were distinguished by their use of authentic components, often sourced from classic vehicles. Notable models included replicas of the Delage D6 and Delahaye 135, as well as prewar Talbot designs. In addition to these high-end replicas, ACB also produced more modest versions that utilized the chassis and components from contemporary vehicles, such as the Renault 18 and 20, and the Peugeot 505 for the Talbot replica.
Despite its brief existence, ACB contributed to the preservation and appreciation of French automotive heritage through its meticulous reproductions of classic designs.
