Rescuing my Abandoned 1963 Citroen 2CV Part 2 // Patina Resto Mod. This is the third part of a mini series VLOG documenting why Jonny Smith decided to save a classic car whose owner strangely disappeared without paying the outstanding bill on this resto-modded (and now beautifully patinated) suicide door ‘AZAM’ 2CV. In this episode you will see the 2CV’s engine go back in, and the body re-married to the chassis, once its seats are dyed and suspension finished.

Before watching this have you watched part 1?
