Ok, I have some parts of a 2CV left over from a stripdown of a rather badly rotten 2CV, mainly the engine and gearbox, but the rest is basically history (it's either in flooded storage boxes or the parts are gone completely)... So, other than the standard 2CV-based kits, anyone got any (serious) ideas on what to build with what I have?

 It might as well be a hedge trimmer without a motor, LOL. Given the weather, why not make a four-speed room fan. Your house might stink of petrol and your partner won't be able to hear Corry - but, ...... given that you get bored easily, it could be something to do until someone else offers a genuinely interesting project. .

Dump the engine and gearbox into a skip, or an upturned 2CV if there is no skip to hand. Now, pop down your local car dealership with your gold card and pick something off the forecourt. Try and avoid anything shaped like a Wendy House this time. Only kidding m8. What sort of thing do you have in mind if not a standard kit? Why not build a trike for a laugh?
