Lot 300: Citroen C4 Pick-Up
Retromobile, Christies (16th February 2007)
Declared on its English registration document to have been constructed in 1929, this vehicle was found in dilapidated condition in the early 1990s. It was still adorned with advertising plates for "A.Bleuse, Vins Chauvigny, Vienne", and still wore the registration plate 726 F 86, the last digits of which locate it to Vienne near Poitiers in the West of France.It was entrusted to Roger Bray for restoration (more well-known for his work with Porsches than with wine trucks), and this was completed in 1996.Since restoration the truck has been dry-stored until recently. When brought out of hibernation, the battery was changed and it was driven a short distance without any trouble. Such was the confidence in the truck that it was used at the owner's daughter's wedding last year. Again as good as unused since, it now has the air of a relatively recent but sympathetic restoration. It comes with various handbooks, sales catalogues, invoices, and a photographic history of the restoration.
