the plans sound good, Lars. i reckon a nice understated look is the key with this ride. if you lose the wide wheels would you put the original enclosed rear wings (fenders) back on? |

Making your car into a stock looking mildly channeled 2cv with the engine you have in it sounds like an excellent idea.
I'm excited to see the result.
Check out some of the dark citroen colours here :

there are some cool colours in the DS range _________________ "That bumper fits there like sunglasses on pig" O.E.

More stock'ish than stock...
The plan is to use these C5 Aloy rims with 155/70*15 tires
thought of paint them red.
I have a set of dyane bumpers that i will modify, the rear one: to the same hide as the front, and the front one: cut the middel part out, as on escort mk.1 Mexico. Where I want to put a couple of fog lamps.
Both bumbers with hols in the middel flat part.
The only parts that i not have fondt out is the rear light, and the grill.
So a litle help there please, also for the hood.
Ps. the Exhaust will also disappear. _________________ Mvh. Lars E

Found just the perfect detail to a shaker scoop on an A model HEMI 36 '
Think I will have to build inter cooler and scoop to get air / cooling enough. Other and possibly better suggestions are always welcome.
Bought a T shirt on the way to WM in most, and have put in my mind since it would fit perfectly with it.
Can somme of you fotoshop dudes help???
Sorry don't have any pictures from the side, from the first years

But the color is perfect _________________ Mvh. Lars E

I dont think that nose fits very nicely on hood.
You could try to work out with some dagonet style skoop/bonnet:
About the color.. When world is full of nice matt colors I dont get why this
boring matt black is so popular.
This "tenerife cross" is also very cliché and quite out already. If you really
wanna have same symbol that what teenagers are carrying in their "cool"
West Coast Choppers (WCc?) shirts... then go on.

Something I worked out fast. Mustang inspired thing.
Matt silver and bright yellow with black line. White area in rear door. Boot would be yellow too. Black rims or moon disks.
