hello there!
frog & kiwi mix, based in Morocco. Automobile lover, when it's different and wicked.
When i discovered this neat site, i realised i could fulfill most of my fantasies Twisted Evil
2cv are scarce here but here's what i've found, need to find the owner though to convince him...
Never seen one of those 2 door fully windowed Ami8 service, and it has got rear seats too!!

How about a woody AMI8 nomad style? any suggestions?

aha! and it's a 5 seater or a plain 2 seater?
I see it's lowered.Looks cool.
A full length rear window would look neat two, instead of the 2 piece one.

Hi

As a matter of fact, the Service had regular AMI 8 floors, so you can fit a back seat. Mine has only front seat, with a sort of box bolted to the floors to make a long flat floor in the back.

It's lowered and pretty much nothing else.

I would have loved one with no windows but couldn't find one in good condition...

cheers

Oi! Bonjour Olli. That's it!
I'd do :
a wood trim following the original side curves, quite simple
one piece rear side window(easy to do i think)
a full front window too
plain painted wheels with chrome hubcaps
full sunroof ā-la-deuche,
i'd suppress the front indicators, maybe replacing them with some from a 404 peugeot
removes all bumpers
All this easily done here in morocco
a top chop would look cool
