Joseph, don't tell me you did it again? or yes? Etienne won't be happy, another 80's custom! By the way, nailhead are true nostalgic engine, maybe you want to put it in a green metalflake machine? _________________ 0 to 70 in the same day!

Nothing... the car exists, it is used from time to time... it's not for sale and quite frankly I wouldn't want it... 17L/100 km... I'd rather do that with Henry Ford Tin than with Andrés Citroen cigarette paper _________________ "That bumper fits there like sunglasses on pig" O.E.

Owner have some fun with it and then leave it in somewhere backyard and forgot it? Quite cool car, but something there is what seems to be "wrong". I don't know what. My eyes, maybe..? _________________ Make it today, tomorrow it's probably illegal...

Only the exhausts out of the bonnet are very bad... I'd be interested in the technical specs of this 2cv, what chassis etcetera. Cheers, Bart Back to top JoZeF Grave Digger Joined: 25 May 2007 Posts: 1734 Posted: Mon Oct 08, 2007 12:18 pm    Post subject: Yeah, well, it's an 80's item isn't it ? I believe it is a Triumph chassis... but have no more info about it... I you want to build a V8 2cv, the best is a tube chassis with mustang 2 type axles... bye _________________ "That bumper fits there like sunglasses on pig" O.E.

(and so many other cars from the past) Wouldn't it be nice to have all those modified and forgotten cars back on the meetings. Edit: Picture of your Oldsmobile Rocket would be lovely!
