    Was afraid of that.

    In Canada a slang term for a French Canadian is frog.

    This is considered non Politically Correct, or PC.

    so

    Non PC Frog, instead of Non CV frog

    A joke.:D

    A little off topic ...
    Quite sure Mika won t mind . French topics usually partent en couille, this one shouldn t be an exception.

    Yes it s a 38 Coupé. Have it since 4 years, still on the rusty shape . Planning a 263 1951 I already have.
    It s just a big 2 pattes :p

    Mika, this is sensational work, thank you for sharing this with us. I had a older lady friend in Montecito, Ca. that had a 2cv, as she aged she didn't feel comfprtable driving the car. I would go to her house and take her to the market on Saturday, it was so fun to drive the car. I am so proud of you restoring this one and keeping it on the road. Best wishes my friend. ~sololobo~

    Very nice!

    Will you lean the back of the car forwards, like in the picture? It looks good like that.
