    Aww Thanks You've cheered Me up. You see I'm having terrible continuing alternator/regulator problems, to a point where I was in tears because I just want to get My car on the road and enjoy driving her. I'm planning to take Her to Stoneleigh kit car rally, that's if I can get her fixed. Anyway She's called "Bitsy" and She's a classic Lomax kit car, built in the early 80's from a 1974 ami.
    Best Wishes, Jahmahrah

      As it usually is with these cars it's probably something glaring and simple like an earth or a slippery pulley you haven't thought of yet I've been there myself many times.
      Oh here's a thought the guy who owns lomax is a member of my Facebook group feel free to post up some details and you never know someone may have had the same problem

    Thanks so much for this. I had wondered what might be available for the 2CV. I really liked the Deuggi. I would love one built with a 602 cc engine and a hardtop. I guess I wished someone had given the 2CV6 a light clean and roomy coupe treatment. Sort of what the Bijou wanted to be but with only 2 seats set a little farther away in the car.

    Interesting video Oliver. I recently purchased a 2CV Jeep replica where the body was custom made a one off, unlike the kit car. It is a pleasure to drive. Looks quite cool similar to a Willy's jeep

    Thank you for sharing Oliver, I think the kit cars are a good idea, they keep cars going that are not practical to restore.

    I would love to see an actual 2cv kit with new or remanufactured parts. Complete engine and drivetrain,frame,body,wiring harness,etc. Purchaser assembles the parts and paints it.

    I have a question, which one of these kit cars would you choose for your 2CV (apart from Jolene)?

    • @OliverPickard
      @OliverPickard  2 роки тому

      If I were to build a 2cv kit I'd find a 2cv completely beyond restoration and go from there. Maybe a 3 wheeler something well proportioned like the falcon

      Great video, more pictures would be good.
      I have a Lomax 224, 5 speed GSA box and 652cc big bore conversion, lots of new parts and great fun. At least the 2CV is surviving in these cars.

    Hi Oliver, great video that I stumbled upon because I have recently been given the opportunity to take on a "barn find" restoration of a 2cv based kit car that is in bits. At fist glance I thought it was a Lomax 223, however on closer inspection it doesn't look like it is. Would you be willing to help me identify it?

    You are talking a load of rubbish, why would you use aluminium or cloth in this day and age? 30hp gives a good power to weight ratio and poor aerodynamics is the reason the 2CV is slow? 30hp is why it is slow. Why make videos when you have expertise?
