Chassis no. 244460 Registration: 221 BJ 64 First registration: 11/1926 Mileage (not guaranteed): 39,899 km Vehicle in good appearance and working order Normal registration In the same collection since 1968 Torpedo "Double windscreen Quality restoration Soft top (recent) in good condition Rear side protection available (used condition) Spanish Veteran Car Club plaque (Madrid-Benidorm-Madrid Rally) Ignition/starter modification (no need for crank to start) Presentation: Presented at the Paris Motor Show in 1926, the Citroën B14 was a minor revolution for the marque aux chevrons. It was the first Citroën with an all-steel body! With, among other innovations, more efficient braking thanks to a servo brake acting on all four wheels, and a new painting technique that saved days on the production lines, the B14 was André Citroën's coup de grâce to competition from Peugeot and Renault. A huge success for its time, with over 120,000 units produced in just two years! Available in several body variants, the Citroën B14 Torpédo presented by Côte Basque Enchères is certainly among the most playful versions of this emblematic model. The first car to join the collection in 1968, more than half a century ago, it has enjoyed many adventures, as witnessed by a plaque from the veteran Spanish car club. In good overall condition following an early restoration, this beautiful torpedo with double windscreen features sound bodywork and a soft top in good condition. With its elegant burgundy livery, black mudguards, burgundy rims and ecru soft-top fabric, this B14 torpedo just needs a good overhaul before it's ready for new adventures! Aided by a contemporary starter motor that makes it easy to get going, it deserves to be part of a new collection that will enable it to find its way back to rallying on the beautiful secondary network.
