Way too much spare time and money but very cool.

Beauty is in the eye yadda yadda yadda. Fugly to me but I appreciate the engineering.

What I think is cool is if he plumbed the Citroen Air suspension into the cargo wheels to drop the bed.

I thought the same thing as spdbrake. It is very different, engineering and execution looks very nice, someone put in a lot of time and effort, just for the passion of it.

A similar idea, though far less elegant in its execution - a Cadillac Seville turned into a car hauler: https://thegarage.jalopnik.com/how-a...-se-1819508971

Look carefully - the trailer is behind, not on top of the hauler:




I imagine any (relatively) large, FWD vehicle could be converted and used as a car hauler.

Very cool, I wonder if the 3 rear axles are Hydropneumatic? That would have been some accomplishment.

Funny that the Dutch meaning for the word Citroen without the ' is lemon. In my work we had one break down and without the engine running to pump up the suspension made it difficult to even get it on a flatbed. The old Austin 1800 had oil pump up suspension. JD
