It's really incredible to see a French car in the USA, because there haven't been a lot of them sold, notably this Peugeot 202 which was most certainly imported by an individual given that this model was never marketed in the USA 🇫🇷🤩👍
USA was never big on French cars. They built history's first automobile in the 18th century, and at the turn of the 20th century took autos out of the "horseless carriage" era into its modern configuration. I'm in Canada and I have an uncle had owned a long list of Peugeot cars.
@@haweater1555 thats why I was wondering if it came from up north, I know Citroen and Peugeots were pretty common up there. And I agree, the French made and engineered some great cars.
I could be wrong but the cut aways on the fender close to the door are for the pop out indicators...similar to those of the Morris Minors who had then on the B pillars
The carb seems just a Solex, widely used in Europe, even seen on some Volvos. Noticed that it is Zenith, so the British counterpart that later joined Solex.
One of the coolest baguettes on wheels…….😘😉
Sounds like a Morris Minor with the straight cut gears and tappety engine, so very cool.
You fixed the choke! Started right up, so cool! Stella might be a french dog but she knew it was not a safe ride yet!
The EG button is for the wipers. The advance should be the top one on the right, with the flash sign on it and the two tabs around it.
OK, I should have watched to the very end! 🤣
eg is wipers!! there's been comments about that on every video of this car 😂
there's even a comment with the translation somewhere 😅

Could it maybe have come down from Canada? Lots of French in Quebec.

Someone in Los Angeles was briefly selling Peugeot 202s around the time this car was new.
@@SeattleSoulFan Intresting. That could explain why this car is in Oregon. (P.S. I'm from Seattle as well, Burien actually.)
C'est une vraie voiture française 🇫🇷
Oui, tout-à-fait!
From the thumbnail (despite the description) I thought it was a Topolino ! Interesting car!
Fuel filter is on the wrong way round. You'll get there!
very cool old ride
Old Model T's had the same distributor advance too
Getting there !
Very good.
*wrings hands*
Yay! Been waiting for this!

That's my opinion as well.
They were also installed on early
VW Beetles.

My French great grandfather drove a Chrysler!🤷♂️
Thx for the pesky but still wonderful ride!
EG is for Essuie Glace = wipers
very cool car
Nice 😊
My '48 Indian Chief - Retard to start or fly over the handle bars, Advance to drive. Had that bike when I was 21 in 1981
Mark - I have to agree! I would much rather watch your UA-cam videos than watching Dylan Mulvaney singing Blue Christmas. 😂
That sounds worse than a child being forced to watch a Lawrence Welk Christmas special.
Marks videos are fun though
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Chop it and make a tough lookin altered...
