that tour was, sad to realize, 25 years ago.
Europe was probably a much different car place then.
And there were some pretty nice Citroens then. That is when I got my first glimpse of a car I'd forgotten, Tracion Avant. The Gestapo car from Hogans Heroes.
These taken in Ho Chi Min City about 8 years ago.
Vietnam apparently ended up with a lot there because of the French colonization.

I had to pass up a local TA, fully restored, for $9000 a few years back when the economy made that a stupid idea.
The body style stayed pretty much the same from '37 to '57.
We had a '66 (I think) Corvair Monza that was gonna be mine. The engine had seized. But someone made an offer as it sat in the driveway, and off it went. Ah well.
