  3. Now wouldn't that be non-productive. "Sweetie could you pass me that wrench on the floor over there?"

    Neat looking car by the way.

    Hey,

    Schwingggggggggggg!! how do ya get anything done in your shop with that red head around?

    The grille looks to ba a '38 Dodge. I've never seen a five window Citroen, three & six lights, but a five, never.

    'looks like a fun build!

    Yea. it used to bee a 4dr. citroen never made a 2dr sedan, only 4dr,coupes and conv.
    The grille is a -38 Dodge yes but whitout the center sektion.
    By the way that little red head is a really good help in the shop, she wants to get this thing on the road as much as i do.

    More pics are comming.

    What a cool hot rod. I have seen those in picture threads before and always thought they would be sweet rod material. Your little red head is a beauty bro, congrats on all. ~sololobo~
