VISIT TO THE MONTE CARLO CLASSIC CAR COLLECTION
During a recent visit
to Monaco I took the opportunity to visit
the Prince Rainier
Classic Car Collection which is housed in a very smart Museum near to the
Fontvielle
yacht marina. The main reason for my visit was that the Museum
houses three rear
drive Citroens all supposed to be Model C's,
similar to mine. Two are,- one being
a Cabriolet like mine and the other a Tourer. The third was a Cloverleaf
but surely a
Type B variety! Museum was very helpful and provided me with an Engineer so that
I
could climb all over them and take some useful
video of various original bits. I then
took a lengthy wander through the rest of the Museum which is well worth a
visit, if
you 'happen' to be in Monte Carlo ! The resultant
pickies are 'still scans' from the
video 'film' so they are a bit grainy and the quality is not brilliant.
