Citroen 2CV Roadster: body and chassis

The suspension, consisting of leading and trailing arms hinged under the floor, can easily be lowered with a bit of cutting. 



The engine now has a small white metal turbocharger, probably from Scale Productions, with manifolding made from brass tube and bits of styrene. In retrospect it could have been set up to allow a shorter exhaust pipe, but it will do. 

Paint consists of Tamiya Light Sand (TS-46) with Linoleum Deck Brown (TS-69) for the fenders. Both paints are flat, so a couple of coats of clear or semi-gloss clear will improve things somewhat. 

Paint now needs to set before the second coat is applied. Stay tuned!
