Citroen is a car brand I like mostly because my grandfather owned a 11B, my mother a 6 special when she was single, and my parents a 70's Dyane, a 82 GSA and a XM. Now what I'm specially interested in is 2cv coupes and cabs. I remember some of Olli's drawings... Maybe here I'll find them back with some additional pictures of those cool rides. glad to be part of you guys see ya pablo _________________ no 2cv... just curious...

I almost looked at all the topics of this forum, and I found very few infos about it. It seems that -except vintage racing cars- not so much 2CVs were customized like this. Found a nice shot of one of those rides Cool pictures... > page2 > Egletons b&w pic Any technical infos or experience about converting a nice 2CV in a supa cool hair dryer? Somebody here ever tried ? _________________ no 2cv... just curious...

I think the chassis was shortened (don't remember well), but that's something I wouldn't do. Keeping the original length of the car makes it look very long and classy, like the coupe made by Olli or this gorgeous Mercury!

Although construction of a convertible is easier than a coupe or a coach, principaly because there is less body work to do, I perfectly know that it must be quite hard to do... But what disapoint me most is that you 2CV enthousiasts dont know a successful realisation... _________________ no 2cv... just curious...
