Thanks Pat.
Those are pretty wild looking. They look like the Volksrods which are basically the same type of lay-out using a VW bug body.
The stock 2CV's always appeared to look like they had a high center of gravity.
I like those... 8) very cool.

Thanks again for posting the pics.

I always put the 2cv in the same class as mopeds and fat chics, fun to ride but you don't want your friends to see you riding them....

Hello,
Just a quick hello to you post pictures from 2cv V8. I saw the "Fun Car's Show" has Illzach (France 68110), It was there about 8 years. I then scan my paper photos, excuse my for the quality.
This 2cv is registered in Switzerland and it is written (rear) "nothing is impossible"

I also wanted to thank you for discussing with me.

Merci, a plus tard.

I can't say that I've ever seen Citroen 2CV's hot rodded before. I think they look pretty cool in hot rod form.
Citroen also had a cool body style car that looked like something out of the 1930's. I know they're newer than that and recall seeing a few when I lived in NYC. This was also many years back.

Are there many hot rods and American cars in Switzerland?

Thanks for posting the picture Sebastien.

A plus tard my friend.

Hello Jack,
The Switzerland is not a great country but i feel that there are many American Cars and Hot Rods.

He had the "American Live 2012 in Oensingen" (Switzerland), I was not there but i found a video on the internet.

Good Night
A plus tard Jacques.

Bonjour Sebastien,

Thank you for the video of the Swiss/ American car meet. I can't believe how many amazing cars attended. It's nice to see old American cars appreciated and enjoyed in foreign countries.
There was also some beautiful station wagons there... 8) Very nice!

Bon dimanche mon ami
A plus tard
Jacques

Hello,
Saturday I installed the new parts. I expect that the Starter should arrive Monday or Tuesday.

Today it's engine oil change and replacement of the front joint from Steering Gear.( My steering gear has two years but already leaking oil :? )

Good Sunday. Bon dimanche.

Very nice Sebastien.
It's always nice to receive new parts. It's like Christmas in May... :lol:
Keep up the good work my friend. You really take pride in ownership. :wink:

Bon journe'e

Jacques

Thank you Jack.

Jack I have a problem with my Steering.
Here is my steering gear:

I changed the front seal and delivered the oil in the power steering pump. Then I turned the steering wheel of a from one end to other, more leakage 😛 . But here i rode with the malibu and I feel that the wheels do not keep track when i turn the steering wheel. The behavior of the self is weird 🙁

Waht have I done wrong?
That can be adjusted with the screw?

There was already a problem with steering before. When I turn the steering wheel, the wheels does not respond immediately. When i took Intermediate Steering Shaft in hand, turn from left to right, the steering wheel moves but no wheels

Thank you for your help.
Good evening.

if I understand you correctly in French you would tell me " il y a du jeux dans la boite de direction, et une fuite d'huile"

sounds like its time to either rebuild or replace your steering box. If you replace it try to find one out of a Z28.
