The 2CV van was first introduced in March 1951 so it´s time to celebrate the 60th birthday of this beautiful creature.

Let's raise a glass or perhaps a whole fourgonnette if available....

See, the van is already on feet, some work left, though.

That was last summer, now it is waiting the snow to melt (still 65 cm to go).

Comparing the right dimensions:

It's looking a lot better. The repainted wheels make all the difference.
