Back in the 1960s or 1970s there was a used cars dealership just across

Highway 80 from me. One time I stopped there and I looked at a real nice

looking three cylinders Saab car they had for sale. I think they were asking

$700.00 for that little red Saab car. About a week ago at Youtube I watched

a Youtube video of an old Saab car being removed from a barn in Norway. I

wants me an old, old Citroen Deau Cheveaux car, just something to play with.

I saw a lot of them when I was in Vietnam. I wants,,,, I wants,,, I wants,,,

I have a friend who at one point had 7 or 8 of those Lemons (yes, citroen

means lemon) lined up along the street in front of his house. Interesting

cars, with their vacuum suspension. One of those guest starred on an episode

of CHiPs, driving down the freeway on three wheels (the fourth was

completely missing). Then there is the airplane style steering wheel.


When I was a kid, (I am a big kid now) when we saw a Studebaker car or truck, we would sing out, Studebaker Studebaker ten feet tall, Studebaker Studebaker spit on the wall! But, the kind of Citroen car I wouldn't mind owning has a two cylinder air cooled engine with front wheel drive and a corrugated sheet metal body. Google,,, Citroen Deau Chevaux cars Youtube
