2 CV-based Le Patron

The car is real and not a Le Patron. The base is a 2CV or Dyane indeed  :)

If it isn't a Le Patron, is it a Lomax then?
Title: Re: GG-171
Post by: guido66 on June 22, 2010, 12:32:30 PM
Not a Lomax, either

This is the one-off 2CV-based HJS Special, made in the UK. c.2007.

Yes! Do you know what HJS stands for? Locked for you  ;)

Post by: Djetset on July 05, 2010, 02:02:09 PM
From memory HJS are the initials of the gentleman that built the car, but sadly as I'm away from home for the next ten days I'm not going to be able to find his name, so reluctantly I will have to let someone else get this.  The car is called the HJS special though.

Post by: guido66 on July 05, 2010, 02:29:05 PM
I've found the website of the builder, and HJS are indeed the initials of the builder.

I think it's too easy for someone else to find the name now, so I'll keep it locked for you until your next reply, even if it takes a month ;)

Thank you Guido66, that's very kind.  Hopefully it won't take a month as I will return back home early next week after visiting Le Mans Classic.  ;D

Sadly in both cases it's work, although i may manage a few minutes 'play'.  It's tough at the top!

Still, some poor sod has to do it, I suppose!

Free for all, Djetset will get a point when I moved it to solved, but there's another point for who comes us with the full name of the builder.
