oder schall ig seggen: Hummel Hummel?

I really don't want to highjack this thread but I could give some informations.

The Citroen AC 4 was fabricated from 1928 up to 1932 in a lot of different versions. I will show a few ones like the 4 glasses sedan, the sedan with six glasses, an original truck based on the AC 4 ( do not mix it, you will still find a lot of modified ex-sedans in France today ).
Just to inform our international friends. The AC 4 is the Ford A from France but you have to accept that the engine is an 1.6 Liter.

I added a picture for our new friend, so he has an impression a way he might be willing to go.
"Also, hau rein!"

Just a friendly advice to you!

Your Introduction was well done but .....
now you reached a border and we all find us
in another thread like you will recognize under: All MetallShaping
( click above first sentence to the left ) like
Automotive Projects

So I think it's the right time to open up a new thread there ( if you like ) with some informations exactly like you did in your introduction and add ( the same ? ) some pictures.
I am rather shure there is the best place and a lot of persons will do a close look at the story further on in the future of the frenchy based hotrod found on a meadow in Danmark made by a craftsman from the allways a bit too rainy but so beautiful town called Hamburg in northern Germany.

Ok Thank you
I Will Start the "new" Tread when i have the new Pictures. Greeting Chrischan
