|
|
My second project, a Cimos Ami 8 Break that I rescued from some Gypsies for about €850:
The current state is quite bad, no battery, got no clue about the engine, the bodywork is almost totally rotten away...
Plans? Make it drive-able so I can get it home and then we'll see how it goes. |

Why? Just read the opening post! It's not that he drove all the way there to just buy a cheap car or rescue a common Ami. He drove all the way there because it's a rare car built by Cimos, no where to be found in france or holland
Good Luck saving the car, erasmo |

And why going to buy a Cimos Ami 8 and then modify it ? (because that's the idea, or am I not on the SNAIL forum ?) _________________ www.super2cv.com |

Some first impressions:
The outside is quite bad, especially on the left side and the roof section:
Also no mirror on the off-side, was that optional on the Ami?
The interior was also quite 'lived', the only maintenance ever done to it was just to keep it running:
The engine misses the battery but looks not that bad, but who knows what secrets may lay hidden under the bonnet:
