Citroën 4-door (1973)
for sale

Price: US $2,800.00

Description:

Attention Citroen enthusiasts! We own a Citroen DS Pallas (model year 1973). This has been a single car owner since the day it was purchased. We have tried our best to care for this beautifully driving machine for many years, but we can no longer maintain the vehicle properly (the lack of local parts and expertise are major contributors). The car deserves a proper restoration so someone can enjoy its legendary handling in open road. The car ran beautifully until about a year ago when a seasonal flood resulted in a sound originating from the gear box. Despite our efforts to properly clean and restore the gear box, the sound persists, a job that requires expertise and funds we do not have. The car sits idle since then, though we have started the engine several times since.
Cosmetically the car needs a face lift. The body is solid, no major cracks or damage. The undercarriage was properly winterized, so the flood did not damage any frame parts. There is no visible damage from water anywhere, though we cannot attest for areas not easily accessible. All glass and trim pieces are intact and in good condition. The interior is not original, but beautifully done.
For verification purposes, the frame number is DSFD07FD3977 and the engine number is 0663031165. The vehicle is located in sunny Kalamata, Greece, and the buyer would be responsible for all transportation costs.
Please take a look at the pictures and do not hesitate to email with questions at amalia8@otenet.gr or stasinos@comcast.net. You may also call at +30-27210-96697 for additional information (Greek, English or French spoken). Thank you for looking.
