Hoogy's recent ebay purchase...
Hi Froggers,
First time caller, long time listener.
I'm very excited to say I am the new owner of the DS 23 Pallas:banana:. Just got it home last night on the back of a flatbed and yes all quarter panels and doors do need a bit of work and that's fine. The engine runs well but the car doesn't rise and the brakes don't work because the steering rack needs re-conditioning. I've downloaded the shop manuals and read the blow by blow on this forum as well so I am going to attempt pulling it out.
Question is, once I have it in my greasy little hands can I re-condition it myself. It seems like it needs quite a few specialty tools. I called French Connection who are local to me but he's not working on DS's any more because of a lack of parts.
Any advice will be appreciated and also thanks to the advice and guidance of Rev Dogboy who has been very gracious in replying to all my emails.
