Bonjour, This RUST-free and garaged for the past 30 years Citroën Deux Cheveaux, is a 1983 Charleston 2CV6, registered in CA as a 1965 to forgo smog issues.

The Argo number, 2404, on the firewall shows it came off the line on 6/9/1983. The maroon factory color remains on the inside, trunk and under the hood. All maroon on the outside is painted Red and the original Black was repainted black.

Everything works which gives an anxiety-free ride. The colors POP and the contrast is great. I have had it for four years, it is probably the nicest in the land.
