ok here another car of mine. this is my pickup. it is acualy the first 2cv i owne.
it begon his live as a simple dolly but after the world meeting in Austria i wanted to bild something special.
and the back-end was so rusty i decided to make a pickup.
after that was done and i had fitted some bigger tires the top speed was something about 95 km/u so it was time for
a visa 650 cc engine.
i drove it a lot and after 1,5 years it was time for another project, i bought a ami-super chassis and a 2cv body
and start bilding a new car
this one
so i didn't use the pickup for a year, but after some time i wanted to do something with it again and i disited to
put the pickup body on the ami-super chassis. fitted a roll cage end some other stuf.
but you guess it after some while even the 1300 cc gsa engine is a bit slow and i wanted more,
so then came the idee to put a turbo on the engine. i did some research on the web and started building the first
engine. didn't lower the compression ratio and i used a turbo and carburator from a renault 5 turbo and it was
working . well it did work for 300 km then i melted a hole in the cillinder head....
ok back to the drawing bord and i started working on the second engine. this time i lowerd the compression ratio and
add a new special clutch becouse the original started to fail. and a extra oil cooler.
this engine works great it put out 105 horse power an 160 nm of torque, i even did 187 km/u on the gps....
the reliability is also great i drive more than 40000 km. including 2 times to the 24/u of spa and even to the world meeting in sweden.
this car is very special to drive specialy when it rains , i even had wheel spin in 5 gear... yes really.
somehow it became more a tecnical experience of what i'm capable of.

Some other pics I made :
I usually don't like the yellow color, big tires and pick-up 2CV... but have been in this 2CV is a great experience!
I still dream of the sound of that car!! Wow!!! I love it!! _________________ www.super2cv.com |

well the 66-47-xm papers were confiscated by a police guy who though it wasn't a save car..... so i had to go to a government technical control (in dutch rdw.) but i'm sure it's not gonna pas that test becouse the chassis number isn't original. so i just bought some other ami-super papers changed the chassis number and drive on f#ck the police. i still have the xm papers but before i can drive with it ,it need the technical control. and one day i prepare a car for the technical control i only have to find out a way to make the perfect chassis number. altrough i already have the tool for the citroen mark on the begin and end of the chassis number _________________

I love this car, especially the turbo-engine.
Maybe this is THE sollution to make my daily visa 650 a "little bit" faster |

Jimmy, peut-être c'est plus façile de dire tout en français et d'utiliser la traduction en anglais en dessous de ton texte. Si la traduction est terrible on peut quand même essayer de comprendre le français ou faire la traduction pour toi. |
