The Traction Avant was unveiled to Citroën dealers in March 1934 and appeared in showrooms the following month. The 7A soon was replaced by the 7B, and then the 7C, launched in October 1934, adopting a 1628cc engine developing 36bhp, while addressing several early defects and shortcomings.
According to the archives of the Citroën Conservatoire, this 7C convertible was manufactured on November 7, 1934, making it one of the very first examples of the 7C convertible, the most successful version in 1934. Purchased in 2012, while it was registered in the Var since 1980, this convertible had the advantage of being complete and having its serial numbers, bodywork and engine all matching. Father and son, aware of the exceptional nature of this specimen, then jointly carried out its high quality restoration, in strict accordance to the original configuration, thanks to the advice of historians of the model. Absolutely everything was restored, the original mechanicals were overhauled, the body completely stripped and repainted, the upholstery redone, and all the accessories specific to this vintage year were found and used. The car has only covered a few kilometers since this resurrection. This rare version is matching numbers and strictly consistent with the original features. A true collector's item, this beautiful cabriolet will satisfy the most demanding of enthusiasts.
