16 years ago we bought this Citroen 2CV and drove it to the south of France for a music conference in Cannes. It got a rusty in our yard and the foxes moved in through the hole in the roof. Well... it brings us great joy to report that the 2CV rides again, beautifully restored.

Delighted to have snuck this one out - great band and we love this 7". Side B is engraved too! Very snazzzy
