Citroen 2CV Upgrade: Black on Black!

This is a gorgeous Black on Black Citroen 2CV….one of my favorite color combinations.  It gives this vintage Citroen car a sleek and sophisticated look that is just so cool.  This 2CV looks pretty good from a far but we are actually doing some pretty cool upgrades with this one.

We are putting in front headrests, a 4 speaker stereo system, an upgraded soft-top and more. As always, we will post updated photos of this Citroen 2CV when we are finished.

Here are some before pics of this great car!

Another Citroen 2CV Ready to Get Back on the Road

Citroen 2CV Repaint–Update!

Out with the old and in with the new! Remember her? She was sold back in March and we were just preparing to give her a new coat of paint and a new look.  She originally had a rusty red paint job and we gave her a new look with the popular yellow/black duet.

Check out her before shot along with some amazing ‘after’ photos.

Citroen Ripple Truckette Coming to EuroCar Imports

This vintage Citroen Ripple Truckette is on its way to EuroCar Imports from Maryland.  We are doing one of our famous restorations so you’ll definitely want to stick around to see some ‘after’ photos.

We also have Citroen Truckettes for sale on our lot.

This small, hard working hauler is an excellent small business truck or even a cool family car. It’s great on gas mileage and they come at fantastic prices.

If you’re a Citroen car enthusiast, you’ll love adding the Truckette to your collection since most of its parts, more than 90%, are interchangeable with the 2CV (including new galvanized steel frames).

The Truckettes are a rare find in the US.  Many estimate that there are less than 150 in the US, imported here by enthusiasts and Citroen mechanics like me.

Keep checking back for updates on this one…she’s going to run and look brand new in just a little bit!

Citroen Ripple Truckette Restoration

We are restoring a fantastic 60′s Ripple Truckette for a customer.

The Ripple Bonnet was first introduced in 1960, when the Citroen 2CV was updated. In particular the corrugated Citroën H Van style “ripple bonnet” of convex swages was replaced (except for the Sahara), with one using six larger concave swages.

These genuine Ripples are very rare in Europe and worth a considerable amount of money worldwide. This is a great chance to own a real piece of history.

This ripple is getting 12 volt electrics/602cc engine with disc brake gearbox and many more fine extras.

Citroen DS- Restoration in Progress

Citroen DSQuite possibly one of Citroen’s most beautiful cars, the Citroen DS, has arrived at Eurocar Imports in NJ.  We plan on doing a full restoration on this beauty over the winter months.  This is the DS21 PALLAS model.

Citroën sold nearly 1.5 million D-series during the model’s 20-year production run. The DS came in third in the 1999 Car of the Century competition, recognizing the world’s most influential auto designs, and was named the most beautiful car of all time by Classic & Sports Car magazine.
