Absolutely STUNNING restoration in "Caronella" For 1800.00 yo-yos THAT is a steal! Amazing. In Holland that would sell for well over 5000.00 yo-yos and the DAF is an original French export model (they are the only ones with the extra ID plate next to the makers plate in the engine compartment photo) John The other thing that marks it as a genuine French car is the fitting of 2 horns. (Anorak mode ON) In the early 1960s French traffic rules required cars to have TWO horns, a "town" one and a "country" one; the town one was quieter (=less loud!) and the country one was a real blaster. Renault horn switches had 2 pressures; when you pushed gently the "town" horn sounded and higher pressure made the louder "country" horn sound. (Anorak mode OFF) Don't know haw Daf would re-design the horn switch to permit this. That aside this is a LOVELY car!!! |

You have to remember John, this is a man who finds Mimosa effeminate so pink is definitely a no-no... ;D
