Re: Yellow and black Charleston toy Nice! It always helps to make these little purchases when spirits might be low!

Re: Yellow and black Charleston toy Well I am in love with my 2CV so even if the old girl goes at some point I will always have "mini-2cv" to remember it by!

Re: Yellow and black Charleston toy Stick with it! Take it slow, and shop around for bargains. You'll be amazed how much you can learn from tinkering with a 2cv, and how much fun it is, too. A couple of diy jobs and your confidence in your own abilities will grow quickly. (So far, I've been able to pick up 3 doors, 2 front wings and a new set of Lipmesa shockers for less than £100 combined, all on Ebay).
BTW, the headlamps on that Charleston toy need adjusting. You'll see nothing at night if you leave them like that.

Indeed, stuff is out there for not many pennies, so far this week I've got a shell, chassis, axles, engine and box and a wing for £30. Admittedly, there's quite a few diy jobs to be done before it ever becomes anything close to a car! Justin, have a look through the 'your a series' forum, some of the cars there have had monumental work done by their owners, everybody starts somewhere!
