Menix 3 Terrazzo, a Swiss one-off by Beat Menzi, ~1982
The creator himself says this was initially based on a modified 2CV chassis and later on a Citroen Ami Super. Nowadays it has a roof fitted on.

The Menix 3 was built by me as a third self-build around the end of 1982 on a Citroen Ami Super * (without the help of kit parts) * It originally had a modified 2 CV chassis, with the engine of the Citroen GS 1015 ccm. (There were still Americans with Birotor Wankel engines). It is one of a kind. The Menix 1 was built on a NSU Prinz, and Menix 2 extended the life of an Alfasud base by years. After completion, there was a three-month war of nerves for approval in 1985, but that's a separate story. Since the original engine had a few problems, such as built-in "carburetor stove" above the hot oil cooler, plus exhaust gas preheating in continuous use. And since air-cooled engines generally get quite hot, the fuel pump is flanged to the cylinder head as a bonus.
