And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
The car shown is a vintage 1969 Citroën DS21 Cabriolet, customized by French coachbuilder Henri Chapron.
Technology: Features a revolutionary self-leveling hydropneumatic suspension system that allows for variable ground clearance and exceptional ride comfort.
Unique Features: The Chapron convertible conversion includes lengthened doors and a specifically designed tail section with a fiberglass boot lid.
Engine: Originally equipped with a 2.1-liter engine, with options for Bosch fuel injection increasing power to 139hp by 1969.
Design: Known for its aerodynamic, futuristic design, it was named one of the most beautiful cars of all time.
You could own one if you didn't mind it being in the shop for repairs every other week.

Assume it has the usual wooden frame. You had to have a termite inspection & get a CL-100 before buying.
ReplyDeleteI lived in Germany for 3 years in the 70's and Citroen's were every where.
ReplyDeleteIt may be "streamlined" in appearance, but it's one butt ugly car IMHO
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of Pink Panther right now.
