Welcome to the restoration journey of my beloved 1973 Citroën DS23 Pallas. This classic car was manufactured with great care and precision at the Quai de Javel factory in Paris. A true masterpiece, it boasts a 5 speed manual transmission and carburettor engine. With its beautiful beige Tholonet exterior and caramel Jersey Velours rayé interior, this car is a true work of art. Join me as I bring this classic Citroën back to its former glory and share my restoration process with you all.

Bodywork
Made a start on striping down doors and wings for a 'dry' fit to see if they are worth restoring, some of them need more than a lick of paint!
Just need
to cut off the door bottoms off and weld this little lot in ;)
Hi Chris,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments, I will be working on this now with added enthusiasm after a 40 minute drive in a gorgeous DS20 seen on the wedding photos page. This was a drive of a lifetime and has spurred me on to get the job finished so I can drive mine on the road. I read aussiefrogs with interest (so much better than ours!) I will keep posting updates.
Regards,
Colin.
