2CV Rebuild 9

Posted on March 2, 2015April 11, 2019 by Holden News

Body off….Simon and Adam from work helped lift the body off the chassis on Friday evening, this is now outside, where it will remain ’till the end of March when it will go to Sparrow Automotive, http://www.sparrowautomotive.co.uk for a new floor to be welded in.

When I purchased the new chassis from Ken Hanner, he kindly sent a disk of photos giving step buy step details of how to rebuild the car, including showing all the necessary tools, some of which are quite special, in order to accomplish some of the jobs.

I have removed the rear suspension and exhaust system, cleaned and painted the exhaust pipe, cleaned and prepped the suspension unit. I’m considering whether I need to replace the break pipes as they seem good….I’ll ponder on that.
