[RBW] Re: Citroens and Hetres
Reminds me of a place (http://www.excelsiormotors.com/) I stumbled upon when living in Lexington, KY and (bike content) riding in the middle of the Bluegrass region on the way to the Woodford Reserve Distillery for a tour. The guy is a methodical mechanic to the stubborn owners of Citroens far from their maker who want their cars to work and be right. There was no reason I could imagine for so many to be in such an improbable place.

[RBW] Re: Citroens and Hetres
Nice... I spent a year (many years ago) working for Peugeot Motors of America (who purchased Citroen in the 70s). There was a photo in the office of a Citroen driving down a street in Paris with the rear right wheel completely missing... Amazing hydraulic suspensions on those cars. I also had the opportunity to run a few errands for the company in one of those Citroen panel trucks (just like the gray one pictured)... required double-clutching... A fun (if not scary) adventure wrestling this beast down the highways of North Jersey. Thanks for sharing those pics, Ian.
