haha, I have just come to print out a small version of it when i saw this post! ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Laughing

Well Ive made a steering wheel for freya's (the little 'un) 2cv, and buggered up the paintwork, so im now off to do it again, oh well! Crying or Very sad

Ive got a proper full size chain link wheel for my 2cv, so I thought she would like a mini-one for hers!

Well after 7 months of inactivity, I finally got my new engine fired up today, just a few 'finishing off' jobs to do and it'll be back on the road at long last!

wahey!

Perhaps I should stick an exhaust on it?

Well it wouldnt really suit the car but I'd love to run open manifolds, who cares that it would have no power, it'd be ace!

It came from dept 59 171 a small village called Hornaing, I bought it in March last year, drove it for a while until engine went west, and now decided to put a late 'Dolly' engine in it, I have only to make an exhaust sytem and un seize the front brakes then reassemble it, and its gonna be back on the road. I hope to take it to the French national meeting in may.

For christmass my girlfreind bough me a set of club headlights for it, which I think make it look double-hard!







Hopefully i can run it this low, although I might end up making new inner wings for the front, there are big dents from where the tyre hits it as it is!
