A 1981 Citroen CX 2400 Pallas Automatic which has covered
less than 1200 miles
Less than 1200 miles? I guess it wasn't that great a drive,
then? LOL
How has the upholstery held up? Did you have to replace any of
that?
What an incredible project? So.. is the idea to take to shows
and hope for a buyer?
A family friend owned a Citroen in the 70's. The one he had
boasted hydrolic suspension to gain more clearance for offroad/
backroads driving.
1200 miles/year - editor or user fail there!
interior got a new headliner and a a few replacement minor bits.
did this one to hang onto for a while, as easily the hours & $$ spent will
make it a challenge to recoup in a quick resale.
The CX has the full hydraulic system, which all the "spheres" were replaced
as part of the reburbishment. That system does the variable height
suspension, self-centering steering, and brakes.
This is my 5th current Citroen and at least 16th Citroen I've owned.
