History:
This car was sold new to an aeronautical engineer in Chicago and he and the Citroen Service dealer religously maintained the car themselves for the next 32 yrs. The car with all the delivery dockets and in showroon condition, was sold in 2005 from the same address shown on the`73 deliverv dockets.
They had rebuilt the engine and transmission and fitted a trans. cooler in 1991 but only 6,000mls ago. In Australia the car recieved a thorough inspection, service and detail and was modified for Aust. Rego. It participated in the Inaugural SM Grand Tour `05 and was then stripped under the bonnet to be upgraded to showcar standard for the new owner. Inspect the car in the Current Projects #19 pages on this website. On delivery it was driven directly to Perth and is regularly used.
