As above, guitslinger, it's a 1966 Citroen Ami. The Ekos are a choice pair, an interesting sound. I've got the 395 12 string too, they're like hen's teeth, I'm in the middle of rebuilding it, ready next week. The sun came out today, for the first time in weeks so I took the opportunity to take some pics.

I know nothin of cars and wasn't alive in the 60's but the fact you are from Europe I guessed it was Citroen from the back wheel being partly covered, a trademark of Citroen.

Really nice trio you have there. Funny thing is I grew up in Brooklyn NY in the 60s across from a Citroen factory.

Thanks, Straycat, I didn't know there was a Citroen factory in New York, ever. I know Citroen made vehicles in Spain in the 60's. Any more information on that?

Cheers........K.
