For Sale at Auction: 1977 Citroen 2CV in Owls Head, Maine

Vehicle Description

Offered for sale is this charming 1977 Citroen 2CV Charleston, one of the most recognizable and beloved French automobiles ever produced. Finished in attractive maroon and black, this well-maintained example benefits from extensive restoration and mechanical refurbishment performed by European Imports of Toms River, New Jersey. Combining iconic styling, proven simplicity, and significant recent investment, this 2CV presents as a highly appealing collector vehicle and enjoyable vintage driver. Power comes from a rebuilt 602cc air-cooled two-cylinder engine completed in 2014, paired with the model's distinctive 4-speed manual transmission. The engine is reported to run well, and a new fuel pump was installed in 2021. The car benefits from substantial mechanical updates including a new clutch, new brake lines, fuel lines, front disc brakes, wheel cylinders, and suspension components. These improvements contribute to a strong-running and well-sorted driving experience while preserving the unique character that has made the 2CV an international favorite for generations. A major highlight of this restoration was the installation of a new galvanized frame in 2014, helping ensure long-term structural integrity. Additional restoration work included new front and rear fenders, new shocks, and numerous mechanical and chassis improvements. The maroon and black exterior presents with classic French charm and captures the unmistakable personality that has made the 2CV a beloved collector car worldwide. Introduced in the years following World War II, the Citroen 2CV was designed as practical, affordable transportation for the French countryside. Its lightweight construction, innovative suspension, and minimalist engineering helped it become one of the most successful and recognizable European automobiles ever built. Today, well-restored examples are increasingly sought after by collectors who appreciate their unique design, simplicity, and undeniable charm. Whether destined for European car shows, collector gatherings, or leisurely weekend drives, this 1977 Citroen 2CV Charleston offers an excellent opportunity to acquire a nicely restored and extensively refurbished example of one of France's most iconic automobiles.
