French dressing, Garage style. Donald Osborne brings three French classics to the Garage, all on loan from the @AudrainMuseumNetwork Museum in Newport, Rhode Island: a 1923 Amilcar CGS, a 1953 Renault 4CV convertible and a 1973 Citroen HY 78 van.
The Amilcar is the voiturette racer that took on Bugatti and Peugeot in the 1100 cc class, with four-wheel brakes in 1923. The Renault 4CV was designed in secret by Renault engineers during the German occupation, and its story ends with Ferdinand Porsche in a French jail. It also turns out to be one of Jay's very first cars: a field car he and his friends drove (and rolled) as kids in New England. The Citroen H van is pure French utility, built from 1947 to 1981 with corrugated panels inspired by early aircraft.
Jay makes his call before the numbers come out. Which French classic gained the most in the last five years? Make your pick, then tell us in the comments.
Thanks to Reliable Carriers for bringing these cars out from the @AudrainMuseumNetwork.
