Citroen CX wreck starting after 12 years
.. one classic wreck story ..
Background ::
Car was bought in Žilina, Slovakia for 150€ as non running wreck. It was dedicated for scrapyard, but im a Citroen lover, so i decidd to buy it and make something better than scrapyard.
We pulled it out from its many years place..it was stuck in garden, wheels were half dug in the ground. It took over 3 hours in night (10pm) to dig it from ground, move on the road and load it on trailer.
I didnt see much from the car, and the next day i took my old camera with me..
Car had no papers and was officialy decomissioned from traffic (scrapped) and in my country its not possible to put it back on the road legally.
Overall condition was bad, no hydraulics.. and no brakes. We braked only by engaging gear. Body and interior bad.. because it had open window and hood for many years, and water got inside.
Budget for this car repair will exceed budget for buying car in good condition.. so it was dedicated for parts only, there was no hope for full restoration.
In the end, this car made me 100€ + some fun and knowledge :)
