One of these?, that would be an interesting tow rig..

Here's another one that looks suspiciously like a VW, would look good towing a tear though

Kevin...the first one is definately a Dauphine..but isn't that last one a Morris Minor.??...sorry don't know all my wacky iron from the rear end...and yes I'm sorry Anjib....I think it's wacky...I have no idea what it is...but isn't that a Borgward or is it a Pugeot in the background (red one)???:lol: sorry...but I have to learn all the specifics on AMC cars as I bought one.... :oops:

Acording to the website, it's a Renault 4CV. (check out the 4 doors with suicide fronts) I would bet it has a VW aircooled engine in it, the rest of it looks too much like a VW.

My apologies Kevin and Anjib....from the rear it looks like a Morris..but then they weren't air cooled or rear engined....what a bone head I am, or did I just dig my self deeper........I'm not worthy...I'll step out now and avoid any more humiliation...great job of research though Kevin....doug

Ok Doug, I'll help you out here

The two cars sure do look similar don't they? :thumbsup:

Looks like Renault married a VW & a Morris Minor to me...
Here's a Morris Minor,

And the same angle of the Renault 4CV,

Boy, doncha watch yer 'Columbo' re-runs? Peugeot 403 convertible.

And an air-cooled Renault is as likely as a rear-engined Ford.

You boys want to do some more book-learning before you wake the teacher up again.....
