that sports exhaust is nice, but indeed a little expensive.

i made my own out of the pipes from old crossboxes.

i see you also fitted AVO adjustable shocks.
I tried them a while back, but they did'nt do anything for me.

i could not get them to stiffen up enough, even if i turned them up all the way, the car was still bouncing.

let us know how what your experiences with them are!

Cool project! Your rollcage looks heavy, you build a Visa engine in it? Or just a 2cv6 engine?

The engine is indeed a modified 2cv / visa engine 710 cc.
The roll cage isn't that heavy it's made from thin steel pipe.
The sport exhaust comes from burton, now i'm trying to find the right exhaust(silencer) for it because of the loud noise it produces right now Wink

Near my village is a little 2cv factory where some people make new body panels all day. They make all the parts and send them trough europe. Very nice work and 100% fitt!!!!

The gearbox we took apart, then sandblasted the whole thing, put it together and painted it with a few layers of fresh alu paint. Nice and shiny.
Think it's dirty again in a few weeks haha
