Description:

HEAR IS A CHANCE OF A LIFETIME! YOU WILL WIN EVERY CAR SHOW YOU ENTER (PEOPLES CHOICE) WITH THIS LITTLE CITROEN! I WAS TOLD THIS CAR WAS BORN A COUPE... NEW OWNER WANTED A TORPEDO CONVERTABLE, SO THE TOP WAS CUT OFF TO SHIP THE CAR TO HIM. THIS WAS IN THE 1970'S. . THE REAR BOAT TAIL WAS BUILT FROM MEASUREMENTS OF AN ACTUAL TORPEDO. THE CAR HAS UNDERWENT A FULL RESTORATION GOING THRU 2 OTHER OWNERS. IT HAS A VERY EARLY VIN# OF 973. THE ORIGINAL VIN PLATE WAS LOST OVER THE YEARS. THE LAST OWNER IS STILL LOOKING FOR IT. HIS MEMORY, AND PAPERWORK SUPPORT THE VIN PLATE I MADE. I MOUNTED THE NEW VIN PLATE IN THE ORIGINAL LOCATION. A HOTROD BUILDER FINISHED THE CAR, AND DID A REALLY NICE JOB OF IT. THIS IS A ONE OF A KIND 5CV... THE NICEST I HAVE EVER SEEN. SINCE IT IS SO DIFFICULT TO FIND ORIGINAL PARTS FOR THIS CAR, IT WAS RESTORED FOR FUNCTION OVER ORIGINAL. UPGRADES ARE AN ALUMINUM RADIATOR, STAINLESS STEEL GAS TANK, ELECTRIC COOLING FAN, GOLF CART CARB, VEGA STEERING BOX! (STEERING IS VERY LIGHT, AND TIGHT) EXTRA THICK FIREWALL, AND A FORD MODEL T DOOR LATCH! THE TAIL LIGHT IS FORD MODEL A . THE CAR IS VERY SOLID! DRIVETRAIN IS COMPLETLY REBUILT, AND ORIGINAL. HAS ORIGINAL BATTRY CUT OFF SWITCH WITH KEY!!!! ALL 5 STEEL WHEELS ARE NEW WHEN RESTORED, AS ARE THE FENDERS. NO BONDO IN THIS CAR!!!!! ORIGINAL CARB, AND STEERING BOX INCLUDED. ... HAS CRANK START, AND ELECTRIC START! HEADLIGHTS NOT ORIGINAL, BUT, PERIOD UTILITY LIGHTS... THEY LOOK THE PART! 3 SPEED TRANSMISSION. TOP SPEED... 20MPH TO 25MPH SHE IS SLOW, BUT LOTS OF STYLE! THIS IS A VERY RARE CAR TO SEE IN THE USA. . NEVER IMPORTED. THE PICTURES DO THE TALKING ON THIS ONE. BID TO WIN! DOUBT YOU WILL EVER FIND ANOTHER IN THE US. SOLD AS IS WHERE IS. ...
