Thanx for your welcome, Wallace!
Don't really know much more about her, only that she belonged to the 2cv-Club Suisse Romont, that she was in Scotland for a festival, in the Netherlands for a meeting - but for the 60. birthday already in Queensland, Australia. I had four 2cv's and a Mehari in Switzerland in the Seventies and Eighties, and whenever I saw one of them I got duck-sick! Finally I got the cash for my dream come true again!

I masked, my brother sprayed - the seat and door covers come from harringtons, the steering wheel from ebay! I just love colours!

I think you missed out a couple of colours.

But I'm not sure. I've got a headache...

i like grey......and beige......but not on the same car :?

(i can never understand why people take nice plain cars and turn them into pseudo charlestons or dollys)

however - takes you back to the days the cars were cheap and colourfull and people used them and enjoyed them too many people get hung up on turning their cars into "investments" these days.
