I took these pictures at the Lane Museum of a Citroen 2CV Sahara. To create a 4WD, the Citroen engineers put a second engine in the back to drive the rear wheels. A hole was punched out of the trunklid for the cooling fan. The spare tire and wheel ended up on top of the hood since the trunk space was gone.

 And here is the Norev 2CV Sahara, in the same typical Citroen gray.

Very nice Harv. I have always loved those 2CV Citroen’s. There certainly were many variations.
