Bob, if you Google  "Chapron DS" you'll arrive at an English text website
describing the various versions of the Citroen DS convertible . This type
was not built by Citrokn but by the Chapron Coachbuilders in France. Story
goes that Citrokn didn't want this at all and that therefore Chapron had to
buy original Citroen DS cars and strip them completely. here in Europe you
sometimes see one on the road - it is a real head turner!
Jack Aeckerlin, The Netherlands (Citrokn idiot - I have been driving
Citrokns only during my whole life, at present driving a 1996 XM Break with
over 320,000 kilometers on the clock, about 190,000 miles)
