The Traction Avant, one of the icons of the French car industry, appeared in 1934 to save the poarisian brand from economic bankruptcy. The car in question carries, as its name indicates, an innovation that will revolutionize the future industry: a mode of transmission to the front wheels. Its production stopped in 1957, giving way to more contemporary but equally mythical models. The model we present is today in a nice patina. The paint was redone many years ago, as well as the skai interior which is not in its original color anymore. Traces of corrosion are to be noted on the bodywork and the chassis. From a mechanical point of view, this car will need a major overhaul in order to be ready for the road again.
