CITROEN TORPEDO 5 HP

Hello to all my friends.
First of all, I want to wish that everyone is well, as well as your family members, in the face of this global pandemic that affects us all, not knowing how long it will last, I appeal to everyone who has the best care.
I hope somehow, with my construction work on the Citroen Torpedo, I will give a little help to overcome this situation that we all live in.
Because I am in voluntary quarantine here at home, I have spent my days working on construction at the Citroen, so I made a big step forward as you can see, however it is not yet finished, there is still a removable hood, the radiator, the side friezes and some more adjustments, here I send some photos that I think will like to see.

Taking advantage of these days of mild temperature, I also took the opportunity to give the first coat of paint on the mudguards and the citroen body, the seats were also completed as well as the rear luggage compartment. And so the Citroen Torpedo gets more and more compound.
As a picture is worth a thousand words, here are some more photos of this work done, I hope you like it and appreciate it, thank you.


 These are the various stages of construction just completed.

CITROEN TORPEDO 5 HP

Hello to all my friends and thank you for your interest in this new adventure.
It doesn't go as fast as I would like, because it is a job very different from the previous ones and that I had never tried to do, but as I like the challenge of new jobs, I decided to go on this adventure that I find very interesting.
Today I will show some more progress, the first coat of primer, the cardan shaft that connects the engine to the differential and the construction of the interior floor. photos I think you should like to see.
