Thanks to Neil, this little bastard has been added to the flok. If chassis is OK it will either be a garage van or turned in to Raid Afrique 2011 car Original rust will be allowed to stay but new floors and other bits are needed. 98.000 km on the speedo. Last driven in 1996 and put away in to the famous barn. We were the first people to ring the seller. Quick smart turning up with the truck and VOILA. Bargins like these, you gotta be fast. Thanks again Neil Cheers Viking bastard

More than happy to fill up Neil's fridge. Rust never sleep. My aim is to get it back on the road legally and safe. This AK is still solid and the rust really doesn't matter. I'm am interested in watching how long it will take before I need to replace rotten door, wings and other panels. On this particular 2cv, the rust just adds lots of charater, don't you think? |

Yep, I will use lots of WD 40 rust converter hoping it will convert back to solid metal again

nice one, Viking! glad you've got it - like you say; you've gotta be quick off the mark when bargains appear - they're gone in no time else! I think it look brilliant as it is, the colour, signwriting & rust all go to help make it look properly rustic - something you can't recreate! i'm looking forward to seeing how this all pans out - fingers crossed that the chassis is ok. |
