Post A Couple of 2CVs
New to the boards so thought I'd post about my cars. First up is my plums and custard D*lly (now sadly deceased, due to an SUV), unfortunately don't have many pictures :(. 2nd is WiP red special affectionately known as Aethelred the Unready, due to an ongoing brake problem he had before being SORNed for over a decade. Pictures in reverse order!

The only car the cat will willingly get into is a 2CV!

So a couple of photos and an update. Back on the road for a weeks now and he's gradually loosening the seized up limbs!
Off out somewhere:

Next up is replacing the tank flap with the new one that's been sat in the garage for ages and replacing the dash/speedo lightbulb.
