Problems Starting Your 2CV?

Tuesday, September 7th, 2010

The ignition coil & HT lead set available for Citroen 2CV cars at Eurocar Imports solves the overheating problems many 2CVs had. These coils are the ultimate replacement and will never have overheating problems—A must have for any 2CV owner!

About the Ignition Coil

This modern dry technology, resin set coil comes complete with 8.8mm H.T. leads and fitting bracket. The real answer to hot starting problems on any 2CV or 2CV based kit car.

This coil has the same primary resistance to a Ducellier 12v 2cv coil – so, if desired, can be fitted to a 2cv fitted with standard c.b points, Lumenition or 123ignition (we do not suggest that is necessary – just that it is compatible).

Yellow/Black Charleston Arrives for Restoration

Monday, August 9th, 2010

This yellow and black Citroen 2CV Charleston has just arrived at Eurocar Imports. We will be doing some restoration work on her including a new frame (you can see this one is badly rusted), new floor pans, new box section, new clutch, exhaust, brakes, oil seals and replacing the gaskets in the engine.

Citroen 2CV Charleston

Did you know…the Citroen 2CV came on the scene in 1948. At that time, it was only offered in one color; gray. In 1959, blue was added to the list of available colors, and then in 1960 yellow was added.

The front-wheel drive Citroen 2CV was not a flash car; it was a practical car. The ability to remove the seats and panels created extra room for larger objects, plus the 2CV was able to travel over 50 miles on one gallon of gas.

The practicality of the 2CV made it very popular. It was inexpensive, fuel efficient, fun, and convenient. Between 1948 and 1990, 5,114,920 Citroen 2CV’s have been produced.

More photos of the Citroen 2CV Wedding Gift

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

We really couldn’t help but share more photos of the Celeste Blue Citroen 2CV that we recently rebuilt for our customer who wanted to surprise his son with it on his wedding day. This was definitely a fun and exciting project to work on, knowing that his son was going to be surprised with the car on his wedding day. It was waiting outside of the church when the Bride and Groom walked out!!

Below is a short photo album.

Citroen 2CV Surprises Bride and Groom

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

This is the Citroen 2CV that we re-built for our customer who wanted to surprise his son with it on his wedding day. Below is the letter we received from the client!

Hi Noel:

Trip from NJ to CT was quite an adventure. It was so hot we had to disconnect one the vent hose, to prevent the heat coming inside the cabin… but apart that, the car ran like a charm.

The wedding was quite a success. We asked all the attendees to surround the 2CV and then we called the bride and the groom outside the restaurant. Everybody was clapping hands, while all of a sudden people moved away to let the 2CV appear.

The groom had tears in his eyes when he discovered the 2CV. I handed over to him the book you gave me and the keys.

No doubt he likes it !

See attached some of the pictures guests took. We also hired a professional photographer. His pictures should be available anytime soon. Will send them to you later this week.

Thanks again for the terrific work you accomplished with very short notice.

Best regards,

Lynn & Jean Vianes

Yellow and Black Charleston-Almost Home

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

We’ve been working on this gorgeous 2CV for the past few weeks. She was originally a red head and was recently sold to her new owners in California. They decided to transform her into a true Charleston using a fantastic Yellow/Black color combination. We’ve been stripping everything down to start the new paint job. Below are some photos of the work in progress, including a before shot when she was in red.
