Your low ami 6 from North of France is very nice !!


It's a great idea to paint scallops on the little red 2CV !!

Thanks!

haha, the little red 2cv is 'driven' by a girl who LOVES anything pink, so after my ami6 is done, I am going to motorise it and paint it pink with black scallops i think.

haha, I wish, no it was only that low because it was full of junk and old gearboxes. Its impossible to wind it that low because the tie rods are too short, and although its really easy to make them longer the front wheels hit the inner arch when its as low as possible on standard tie rods, so it'd need a lot of work to get it that low, it'd be worth it though.

Nah just tarting it up for French national. The cage is probably about as structural as a wet paper bag anyways, I made it after all.

I dont think its a good idea taking the front indicators off, i think a better idea is to take the wings off, throw them away, and have a new pair with no holes painted and fitted. I really want to get it signwritten too now, aswell as another sweet set of Kirkey seats, but this is my everyday wife-and-child carrying car, so I dont want to get too carried away with it. Ill save that for the Ami6 saloon.

Thanks for the positive comments!

You could suspend it from the hoop, like a bungy jump for the little tike every time you do speed bumps.
