Citroën Traction 1952

On the occasion of Citroën's 100th anniversary, François Allain takes on one of the most legendary models in our history, the flagship of the French automobile: the Citroën Traction Avant, released in 1934 and produced for more than 20 years. François unearthed an 11 CV model from 1952 bought 2,300 euros from a Citroën collector. He called on his team of experts to give this French monument a second life. Motorization, suspensions, bodywork, upholstery, the work is monumental. François will he succeed in restoring French whooping cough in the allocated budget while making a profit during the sale? The challenge may be very complicated! Then our expert meets up with a great figure in the French rock scene, Louis Bertignac, to have him test, in the countryside, the queen of the road, 15/6, the top of the range Traction Avant in a very rare discoverable version. The singer, rocked in his youth by the Citroëns, entrusts François with his childhood memories with this car.
