a quest to save the 2cv from rust and the scrap yard

It all began one fateful day when Mark was driving to Stonehenge. Coming up to a roundabout the steering on his faithful 2CV became very stiff to the point where it was hard to drive.

He called out the AA and was assured that the problem was somewhere in the column (probably the bearings or nylon sleeve) and that it'd be ok to drive home and take it to a garage. He eventually took it to a garage to be told that the chassis had rusted through, and the vehicle was not only unroadworthy, but should probably be scrapped.

After sulking for a couple of days, Mark was telling his tale to his friend Ross whose response was "So, are we going to fix it then?" - an he hopefully hasn't regretted it ;)

This was back in December 2004. Did they make it? Visit their website and follow the progress of the restoration and the following adventures ...
