Highlights
- Restored chassis and axles
- An important car in the history of Peugeot
- Accompanied by a large collection of spare parts
The Plus
Referred to internally as the "190S", in recognition of its status as Peugeot's 190th distinct design, the new 5CV was to be the company's last car before the introduction of the three-digit nomenclature (with a "0" as the second digit) that it still uses today. The 190S was also the last Peugeot to be delivered with a wooden body, truly marking the end of an era for the marque, and is therefore a historically significant car for collectors passionate about French classics.
We are delighted to present this fantastic opportunity to restore one of these cars, a 190S 'Coach' project already started by the previous owner. The chassis and axles have already undergone some restoration work, providing a solid base for further rebuilding. For those with the skills to hand build their own body, or perhaps build a 'special' of their own design, this could be a fabulous project to undertake.
