Recognize this?

OK all you mystery detectives - what's this car?

Very advanced for its day. And definitely an "interesting" gear shift. Hint: there's an "Italian connection".

Citroen Traction Avant. If we need a more specific answer, my guess is it's a 1955 11B.

Traction Avant it is - but 18 years older than 1955.

Tom, The '55 guess was exactly that - a WAG. I remembered that interior from drooling over this at Imports at Carlisle (PA) back in May. This one was a beaut.

now *that* is a great looking restoration!

When the owner gets tired of it, please have him ship it to me for long-term safe keeping and random bits of mechanical exercise ...

Great picture.
