I was having doubts about the back but I have to say than it looks good actually.
Will you make inner fender at front to hide the "box" ?
You should use some 400 wheels, maybe with some 115-400 Pilote on the front ! These are for tractor, looks like the 125 but not street legal.. but anyway, I don't think you care much about that !

I think you've nailed the proportions - not a little feat. It will look great!

Thank you all,
I have difficulty with English and google translator is not very reliable ... but I understood in large.
So, yes it will brake the front and Etienne ... I don't understand your story wheels ...

Je disais que tu devrais utiliser des roues en 400 pour faire style ancien. Et pour l'avant tu pourrais utiliser des pneus Michelin Pilote, on en trouve des pas chers en 115 qui ont exactement la même gueule que ceux pour 2 CV mais qui sont pour des tracteurs et pas légaux sur route... Ce dont tu t'en fous j'imagine ! 
I juste explained what I said before !

Finally there is a full scale example of a fenderless, forward-moved front axle 2cv, and i think that doesnt look as good in all angles as many had bet, or maybe it is too much forward-moved?

But it looks better than non moved axle from any angle, so?

At the front is 125/400, at the rear is 195 r70 15 but in the end it'll be 215 r70 15... bigger is better in the rear right?

you don't have the right type of tyre profile on the back.
they need to be taller and narrower.

I might of missed this, but how will you make the front brakes work now that the gearbox is in the rear???
Will you fit another empty box up front to mount your calipers on??
Looks absolutely AWESOME
