A New Car in our Midst

What is it? Who owns it? Why?

OK. Here's the scoop. I 'ran into' Bob L. driving this car on Tuesday and couldn't believe my eyes. I remember reading about the Citroën Traction Avant back in the 1950s before I even had a drivers licence. Obviously the name Traction Avant means front wheel drive which has been a characteristic of all Citroën's main production cars. This model has no frame but uses a monocoque body giving it very low lines and a beautiful flat floor interior. Bob's recently acquired example is absolutely stunning—inside and out. I'm sure you'll get a chance to see it at our next get-together—weather permitting.

I know what it is!
I know who owns it!
And I know why. If you could see it (no photo does it justice), you would know why too. :-)
