Here we have an extreme case of Citroenitis. The virus has been contained in this fenced-in compound in Colorado Springs where about 40 Citroën DS19 and DS21 cars and station wagons, and a building full of parts, are now being offered for sale by the affected owner. Feel up to an all out DS restoration or would you just like to have a few spare body parts on hand?
We first mentioned these cars in our November 2013 post: Citroën Field of Dreams. John Reed, who was one of the most active Citroën mechanics in the Denver area, had them stored at a different lot. They have since been moved to this spot located on Stone Ave, between the Unfinished Furniture Warehouse and Atlantic Relocation Services, and are up for sale again on Craigslist. Though the ad doesn’t provide any contact info!
















Back in 1983 I took the Amtrack to LA from Denver. I made friends with a Denver cop turned car salesman. He said if I am ever there to look him up in the only Citroen dealership there. I just wanted to give him a shout out and still remember us joking, Tomsmoking cigarettes and drinking beer all the way to LA. Tom Beall
