No wonder decent second-hand rear doors are hard to come by...

Do you have some pictures of the prgress of your project? I would like to see how you are doing  I .m.o. the new padding strips are much better than the ones Citroen used in the time 2CV was built. So no worries about moister I think . |

Hello everybody! I've been away for quite a while, but I'm happy to say that I'm now back... trying to pick up the pieces of a project that had to be put to one side while I attended to urgent matters. My van has had no attention for 2½ years and is looking a bit sorry for itself. Thankfully it was stored in a dry barn on a farm. Last week I moved it to my home and re-started my work on the bodyshell. Attachment: Scruffy van.jpg [ 662.26 KiB | Viewed 9848 times ] I'd more or less finished the welding jobs before the enforced lay up. Now it's a case of fixing up the surface rust spots and painting it. I also removed the tank from my white Special, and took out the fuel gauge thingy. Attachment: Special fuel gauge.jpg [ 959.65 KiB | Viewed 9848 times ] Can anybody tell me how to repair this? |

Welcome back Smiffy. Bin the fuel gauge, a new one from ECAS is cheap enough. An original Magnetti Marelli https://www.ecas2cvparts.co.uk/fuel-tan ... 6a3ed9b21f A copy for half the cost https://www.ecas2cvparts.co.uk/fuel-tan ... 6a3ed9b21f |

Just solder a piece of wire between the two brass strips. |
