Bonjour!

I kinda have an affinity for Citroens and Panhards. And the French classic car magazine scene is pretty neat too, although the ones I remember seeing ("Gasolin" among others) I think have stopped publication since the recession a number of years ago.

i live in austin texas and i have a 72 cutlass 2 door coupe. parts prices are outrages online and from books i know because i need a lot of parts my self. try looking in a auto salvage yard you might have to ship it across seas but it will be a LOT cheaper. a used grill for my car is 300$ at the best on ebay but i found a really nice one in a salvage yard in dallas texas for only 25$ i saved over 275$.

Welcome to the site, also look forward to some pictures of all your vehicles. Parts can be found in numerous place including through this site. I'd post a list in the parts wanted section and see what happens. If you check the Classic Oldsmobile map you may find members in your area that can help you out. We have quite a few members in the Euro Zone.

Hello and welcome to the forum! It comes very handy for DIYs and if you have a question on a particular product you are thinking of getting.

Pics of vehicle and your terrain are always appreciated.

Welcome to the forum! Don't worry about your English. It is better than some Americans'. I'm sitting here in Louisiana hoping that you have a good crop in Bordeaux so you can make a lot of wine. I won't write anything in Louisiana Cajun French as it may have changed too much to be understandable. Best wishes!

thank you !


those four last years, the crop been good in quantity, but the quality is not so good: we had too much days of rain. (in the "Bordelais"). the wine is good but not very good as it has to be..! (I don't work in the wine speciality but i live among the wineyards and i like good wines...! )
i like too the cajun music and the country music...the country music is enough known in France since 15 years: there is many "festival" around the country, small or bigger and a radio show every friday night on RTL. but not a lot of cajun music.. and all about the USA is modish at this time: holidays in your country, old cars, the route 66, goodies....!! i did not wait the modish.. i have always been attracted by the north america, his way of life and his spirit; since my fifteen's ! i join a pic of my home Inside...! yes, it's in France....!
have a good day !
