Here's some old grot I just picked up: Super! Seems distinctly less like swiss cheese than my MkII underneath. Just needs a new rear wheel cylinder, a starter motor and some P38 bodgery and it should be all systems GO!

Spotted this on the 'bay I'm sure - looked like an ideal candidate for the pug XUD diesel conversion, but funds/space/time made me exercise restraint....one day perhaps! Looks pretty good though, any plans?

Fix issues - MoT - drive! Though if you did want to diesel it later - well I'm sure the 1725cc would be happy living on in my '64...

Good stuff.
I've got a Haynes manual for a HILLMAN/CHRYSLER HUNTER & MINX, 1966 - 1978 if it's any good to you? Obviously I'm not as 'up' on these things as you are, so I'm not sure. Let me know and I'll bring it to work on Tuesday if so.

Pog' if your other one is on here I probably have but tell/show me anyway

I would expect the DS to be a 'customers car'... the car was sold to me by the owner of this place: www.chevronics.co.uk/He also has loads of old Cit's plus 3 triumphs and a mega-rare renner 6. I have cajoled him into bringing something interesting down to this weeks 'geek meet'.

Three wing-mirrors is just perfect! Very cool motor.
Love the old Citroen, too. No, not the Xantia!
