Citroën DS 20 - December 1968 - Single owner - Original condition / Barn find
Description
Rare opportunity on the market: we are selling this December 1968 Citroën DS 20, strictly original and single-owner.
The vehicle has emerged from several years of dry storage. Its structure is exceptionally sound (original chassis, sills and floor pans in immaculate condition, see photos of floors under the carpets). This is an exceptionally rare preservation base for the discerning enthusiast, displaying a beautiful original patina.
Model: DS 20
First registered: December 1968 (Needle gauge/ horizontal ribbon and headlights under domed covers)
History: Single owner, period documentation and handbooks present.
Interior: Original red leather trim and cream-coloured panels in remarkable condition.
Mechanics and running condition:
Engine: Starts first time! Nothing to worry about here, except for an oil change and filter replacement as a precaution.
Hydraulics / Braking: Hydraulic leak present at the brake fluid reservoir. It would be prudent to plan for replacement of the spheres, a pump overhaul and a complete check of the brake pads.
Tyres: To be replaced (aged from time and storage).
Bodywork: Structurally sound, note a slight superficial rust spot to address beneath the windscreen trim clip lock (at the top centre of the aperture).
