This is an argentinian Citroen 3cv 1979, the mechanical is equal to the European 2CV6 (602 cc), rescued from a junkyard in 2003, restored as a daily car, and this year we used it for a race car that travels 3000 km in 5 days throughout the country, covering almost half stone paths and dust. I have some photos of a process of almost 9 years.

2005


2006







2008



2009





2010, and the resurrect































2012, the race

Living the dream!

Great pics, I love that the driver looks so serious but your co-pilot looks like he is pissing himself with joy and happiness!

Great shots,

Harley

Thanks Harley, the driver is my father and I am the co-pilot lol! he was driving seriously because on these roads we ride at speeds of 80/90 km/h, in Highways both were happiness lol!

JieKie, the tailpipe is home made, with junk pipes of 2 1/2 inches lol! it sounded so good! now the car has the original one.

Intercom, listening to music or is the exhaust too loud? Wink

The rims were produced here for Citroen's, it's the most common wheel that you can see here.
