This 1967 Citroen 2CV has given up its original small-displacement air-cooled boxer twin for a built 350/360 SBC, as well as its novel factory interlinked long-travel suspension for a modified Chevy S10 setup. Overall build quality looks to be pretty good, and the car was displayed at the 2014 Detroit Autorama where legendary customizer Gene Winfield is said to have liked it so much he signed the dash–pretty cool. The builder and seller has only driven the car about 100 shakedown miles and is now sadly forced to sell due to health issues, but they report that the engine, built 700R4 auto trans and brakes all work, and we think the finished product looks like ridiculous fun. Find it here on Craigslist in Caro, Michigan for $17k OBO. Special thanks to BaT reader Ben B. for this submission.

Says the seller: “I built this car and showed it at the Detroit Autorama in 2014. Gene Winfield liked the car a lot and said ‘it looks like it would really haul ass!’ He signed the dash for me (see photo of him signing it in ad – BaT). The car had not yet been driven and a few things were still needed to finish it totally. Sadly due to sudden health problems I’ve been forced to retire and never got to enjoy the car of finish the small details. I’ve only driven it about 100 miles to check the motor, trans and brakes and all are OK. I am selling for the asking price of a nice fresh restored stock 2CV but will deal on the price. One thing for sure is no matter where you go no one will have one of these and wow does it draw a lot of attention!”

Here’s a look at the custom sheet metal dash complete with approximately 400% more instrumentation than stock. Seats are generic looking black vinyl items with a 70’s GM look to them, and their condition looks to be good. Note also the tilt GM steering column.

The seller goes into lots of welcome detail regarding the motor: “The engine is really a 360 cube motor, early 70’s four-bolt 350 block .060 over with JE forged flat-top pistons, six-inch I-beam rods, stock crank turned .010 and fully balanced. The heads are 462 castings with 2.02 and 1.600 stainless valves, hardened exhaust seats and bronze guides, screw-in studs, chrome moly retainers with 10 degree locks, heads are bowl-ported, gasket-matched and polished, the chambers opened to 68cc and polished. The cam is a split 268/278 duration 450/468 lift hydraulic with roller rockers, intake is an early Weiand with dual carter WCFB’s that work great.”

Again from the ad: “Trans is a 700R4 with high-speed, low-rev gearset, Beast Sunshell red race clutches, TransGo Stage 2 valve body kit with a 2400 RPM lock-up torque converter. Frame is a 1988 S10 2WD with custom rear section to fit body. Front end has tubular upper A-arms and rack and pinion steering. Rear end is a stock S10 unit with a 3.23 open diff and custom four-link with coilovers. You can’t see in the pictures but the fuel tank has a full metal bar cage built around it.”

We love a bone-stock 2CV, but they made close to 4,000,000 of them so we’re also cool with wild customs like this one–if only it’d lean like the original we’d have to find an excuse to own it.
