Snailers !! Hola amigos! My name is Demetrio and I'm 35, live in Misiones, Argentina (where are the Iguazu Falls).

Four months ago and buy a 3cv azam 1973, originally white, now we paint this ugly color javascript:emoticon(' Laughing

')

sorry about the translation is half miself half google docs ok?

I really want to channeling this car but, the state of the streets of my city does not allow it, so I settle for a very cool blue car, half-height.javascript:emoticon(' Wink

')

Now i work with my friend Charlie,we want to change the bumpers of the car. Someone has plans european model bumpers?

THANKS! Laughing

It was build there in quite big scale. The 2CV was built in Chile and Argentina. They even had their own mark IES superamerica:

Welcome !

These argentinian 2 CV are interesting. Check out the old version of the body. The third side windows are just "on" the custode and not like in our post-65 2 CVs... See the difference ?

The IES are crazy, at least for the last version. Tube châssis, leaf springs... Shocked

Seems as though our Argentine friends like to take their 2CVs out to play as well...

Wish I could make out if there's a red line on the revcounter, as the driver isn't frightened of keeping the pedal to the metal. Laughing

Yes, is a hard top, I have to repair it because the previous owner sealed it.

any of you, my friends, has drawings of the bumpers of European models, which are much more beautiful?

Thanks!
