Its really too Cliché to be cool anymore. Hope you understand -Olli ps. Maltese Cross vs. Iron Cross. Its true that orgins of Iron Cross may be in Maltese Cross, but where it came to the custom culture is German Iron Cross. _________________ www.ollierkkila.com Back to top Etienne Hoodrider Joined: 25 May 2007 Posts: 2829 Posted: Mon Aug 22, 2011 11:47 pm    Post subject: cedmx2 wrote: Maltese cross is an icon of Kustom Kulture, nothing to see like a bad political symbol. It's an iron cross, not a maltese cross. I don't why french people mix them. And huhu it's just a bad "tuning scene" symbol nowadays ! But anyway your car looks great and would look muuuuch better without it ! _________________ www.super2cv.com Last edited by Etienne on Tue Aug 23, 2011 11:59 am; edited 1 time in total Back to top dule Lowered Joined: 06 Jan 2008 Posts: 590 Location: Zagreb, Croatia Posted: Tue Aug 23, 2011 10:48 am    Post subject: maybe I should have written just paint the doors blue :) ...or instead of "that symbol" put a oldschool fake business sign, if you feel like you need sth on the doors..

JoZeF: Do you think it's the first AK with channeling?

Well i think so. Can't remember if there is another one. But I'm talking finished, driveable cars. Several 2cv Vans have been started, however, but your's is the first to hit the road I think. _________________ "That bumper fits there like sunglasses on pig" O.E.

Moon does that and looks pretty old-fashioned and kustomkulture as well _________________ I'm going down to Bopland.

So grab your... and make it a nice rusty one! Afterwards you can tattoo your ride with the Snail logo right across the rusty lily. I would like to try it on the hood of my AX, like this... but don't expect me to draw in the Snail logo... too diffiCULT! _________________ http://muskies-aircooled.skynetblogs.be/ Back to top antopipac Snailer Joined: 02 Oct 2011 Posts: 2 Posted: Sun Oct 02, 2011 4:28 am    Post subject: Hey man! lovely van...looks the nuts lowered! Whats the handling like? When i fitted a new rolling chassis to my 2cv it had been lowered and handled like a dog! I had to wind up the suspension up to get it to drive without wallowing like a drunken sailor. re "the cross" seems to be causing controversy...not my cup o tea but hey if you like it thats cool! Ill never forget what a certain 2cv 4x4 "specialist" said when I vaunted the idea of painting one of my azu 250s chocolate brown "Naa Ant its been done!" Errrrr....and? Please please please people I love my 2cvs because of their non conformity and the individuality of their owners...Lets not descend into the pretencious chequebook culture that the vw "scene" has become! Who the hell cares what is in or out of "fashion" when we are talking about the 2cv? If you like it then its Back to top cedmx2 Snailer Joined: 03 Jul 2011 Posts: 9 Posted: Sat Dec 03, 2011 12:14 am    Post subject: The ak turn like a tractor^^. I have to work on the handling this winter. Cut the pivots and change the chase. And the cross still on the doors Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         SNAIL Forum Index -> Your ride All times are GMT + 2 Hours Goto page Previous  1, 2, 3 Page 3 of 3   Jump to: Select a forum SNAIL forum----------------General chatMeetingTechnicYour ride Sell/Buy----------------For SaleWanted  You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum Powered by phpBB © phpBB Group.
