Citroen's have Isetta babies!

 

1924 Seneschal

 

Back about '64 or so, I had some ''Novi 500" Fiats. 2 cylinder air cooled POS's

Here is the last one leaving. Set up this joke photo. Guy in Caddy bought the thing and hauled it from PA to part way down in NJ this way--with just the front wheels dropped into the Cad's trunk--wouldn't fit all the way in.

First time I see a Donnet skiff bodied. Is that a stock body or a Citroen C3 Clover body?

 

Nuova 500, i.e. New 500, to distinguish it from the liquid-cooled, 4-cylinder 500 Topolino of 1936-55. The photograph shows the awkward US-market headlights: elsewhere it had smaller headlights integrated into the body:

My uncle had the Giardiniera, or station wagon, which had the same air-cooled parallel twin laid over on its side under the load floor.

Metalshapes races a completely bonkers tube-framed 500.

 

Normandy? So you must read and listen french. La caisse Donnet est specifique a cette auto. La caisse ciroen n'a rien a voir . Tout en aretes vives et aucun arrondi.

 

I do not know.

My late brother's first car was a 1959 Nuova 500 "Sport" he got new as a present when he graduated from high school. I drove it quite a bit in the early '60s and it was a fun little car.

 

1943 DAF
