I'm not sure which is worst.

The fact that he claims to have already built 15 of them, or the statement that he intends to keep going and churn out more just like it... :roll:

To add, I have built about 15 2CV based cars over the last several years


How many of those were actually finished?

and will probably build a few more later.


That's fantastic news.

I had noticed that very similar listings to that appear quite regularly, he seems to think it's a sustainable business to half build cars. Not even I'm going to try and defend that one, the previous ones were predominantly ugly, but this takes shoddy to a whole new standard, it's obviously been thrown together, but looks like the parts were thrown from the far end of the yard.

it seems that its not just the world of 2CV that attracts the "no plan, no skill and no taste" custom builder ...meanwhile over on another forum a "Doorman " asks for some torch angle tips for his "fig welder"(sic) as he is having problems........torch angle would appear to be the least of his problems

before , an accepable looking jap custom

ok so its probably not "sreet fighter" enough for a bad-ass door man

ooh getting somewhere

WTF! :shock:
