Hey there, I'm new on here. I didn't know it existed until last week. It's a great site btw.
Well I'm James and am from near Manchester, England. Im 16, so I can't drive until September, although fingers crossed i'll have a red special when I do( so long as my dad's dyane is fixed by then)
Currently, we've got a '88 red special, '81 red dyane thats in bits, currently being bodged back onto the road and a modified Morris Minor Traveller.
I've been into 2cvs since I was about 2. My parents/grandparents have had 2cvs since to late 70s ( I think its the only new car they could afford lol).
I go to 2cv events when I can and am going to Retromobile next month, I'll upload some pics later if I can figure out how to.
i respect people who modify old cars. I'm fedup of people who are up their own arse about modifying old A series/classic cars and think that they should be in competly origional and pristine condition. They complain that there isn't enough young people taking interest in classic cars and that there wont be any left because future generations will see them as scrap, but then don't respect what we want to do with them.
Anyhows, I'll shut up now.
James.
PS how do you post photos please? |

Welcome here James!
As Neil said, you has to post 5 messages before you can show us some pics (just answer to some other topic-- it's anti-spam safety). _________________ www.super2cv.com |
