I think it would not be good if front doors would be suisides too.
Now the side opens like the book, and that is the cool thing in this mod.
Some "super luxury cars" like maybach has this kind a opening.

I don't think it would be better looking with front doors also suicide. Like Olli said, it's like a book. But feel free to make it like this and make it how you would like it instead.

I know this guy for a long time. We have been talking about it, and some of the solutions he had to make to make the doors work good like this are really wel done.

He agreed, it is not handy, the doors like this, they don't open very far. And it look a little weird, because of the c-style being not straight up, so the doors "fall" out of line when opened. He thought of making an extra hinge, that would "tilt" the door when open, but that proofed to be nearly imposible to make. Then there would be an enourmous lump of hinge on the door.

The car is not ready. Because he is a friend of mine, we will hook him up with an audio system, offcourse. This will take some time, because it's planned to be intergrated in the rollcage that needs to go in still.

Well, he never makes any pictures, and he does not live very close to me, but i will try to visit him so every now and then to go and make pix.

He does like that, hahaha

Yep, not a big fan of the "door falling off" effect, but I think it's probably the first 2cv with doors like that...
