Your so right, I'v even put the last photos on the wrong listing.
Here's a second attempt.

Boot hinged giving maximum access.


Bonner hinged and split keeping the dash area fixed.


The bulkhead is almost completed.

I'm very pleased the way the rear lights fit the body recesses.



In fact I'm so pleased I'v taken a mould so I can retro fit them on something else later.

Very nice indeed!

Lovely job. Might those superb wheels have been built for a horse-drawn carriage, or did you make them yourself? Why did you dump the superb Citroen front suspension for coil-overs? My Ami8 van would out corner most things, as long as you kept your foot in it!

I can't remember where the wheels come from but I didn't make them.
I will try them on the completed car but stick with plain 2CV wheels for now.

The standard Citroen suspension is fine and much improved if a ARB is fitted but for this build I thought coil-overs were the better opinion piratically on the rear axle unit.

The back end is finally complete.
Now with fuel tank , fuel filler, brake lines and wiring all in place and all under the boot lid.
At some point it will have to be boxed-in and a full mudguard fitted to give some space for a little stowage area .



Had to make the new wiring loom from starch. .



I have kept the dash lay-out as basic as I could and used the original 2CV speedo.
