From the seller:
THIS CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE 1300 GS ENGINE IS COMPLETELY RE-BUILD AND HAS ONLY DONE LESS THAN 5000 km SINCE. IT IS BUILD ON AMI SUPER CHASSIS.RECENTLY IMPORTED AND LICENSED IN WA AFTER THOROUGH INSPECTION. IT IS LEFT HAND DRIVE. IT HAS A TOW BAR. GEARBOX AND OTHER MECHANICAL PARTS ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
BOOT EXTENSION IS AVAILABLE, IF WANTED AND ALSO ANOTHER 20L PETROL TANK.
The mind boggles at what would be required to get that registered in South Australia… IF one could get it registered, that is …
I never even heard of these Sidewinders. Were they standard issue or were they some modification by petrol heads that could not stand the lack of power 🙂
If found more info at wikipedia:
The last evolution of the 2CV engine was the Citroën Visa flat-2, a 652 cc featuring electronic ignition. Citroën never sold this engine in the 2CV, but some enthusiasts have converted their 2CVs to 652 engines,or even transplanted Citroën GS or GSA flat 4 engines and gearboxes. Cars with the flat-4 engines and subtle bodywork changes so they appear to be standard are known as “Sidewinders” in the UK.
