A stately Citroën that burns coal! That’s right, alternative fuels were big during the second World War since there was no gasoline to be found outside the military establishment. This 1938 Citroën Berline has two bulbous tanks on either side of the engine compartment that contain coal which gives off [methane SIC] gas when sufficiently heated. The combustible gases are then fed into a special carburetor that controls the gas flow.
