Bonjour!

Here two trucks from my archives. I hope someone of you can tell me more about the model and so on.
Ici, deux camions de mes archives. J'espère que quelqu'un d'entre vous peut me dire plus sur le modèle et ainsi de suite.

Le premier a été conduit en Hollande. Selon la liste des engagés, il s'agit d'une C4.
The first one was driven in Holland. According to the entry list, it is a C4.

Celui-ci est détenue en Belgique. Les volets dans le radiateur avis, c'est une GL?
This one is owned in Belgium. The shutters in the radiator suggest it is a GL?

Merci d'avance!

Cordialement,
Job

Thanks a lot.
So they were both converted and so non-orginal?

Merci beaucoup.
Alors qu'ils étaient tous deux convertis et donc non-orginal?

Helo MFC,

It must be nice to see your own car depicted by someone else!
What about the radiator and hubcaps? It was pointed out they did not belong to the C4G trucks?

Bonjour!

Cette photo a été édité ce matin. Est-ce une camionnette à la recherche originale ou est-ce une reconstruction? Un AC4?

This pic was edited this morning. Is this an original looking camionnette or is this one rebuilt? This is an AC4?

Merci d'avance!

I think it is a C4 F .
It was in the original form a car which was cut to make a little truck .

... I'm confused. Do you mean all such pickups were originally built as a berline or something and after the car was completed, cut by the factory to make it a pickup...? Sounds illogical although it was common practice to convert cars into shooting brakes and convertibles in this way...
Or do you mean this particular car was originally built as a berline or something and later in its life converted into a pickup...?

Please help me out ;).

Yes, after war it was very difficult to find petrol.
Only cars used by compagnies could have gasoline tickets, so that sedans were cut to make mini truck.

Hello Jobbers,
Welcome on this forum.
Concerning the C4 trucks, you can have a look here :
http://www.c4c6historique.fr/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4204
On the first page, you can see a converted torpedo picture, example of the post war (second for papy voiture!) actions for fullfilling the needs of this period.
Sincerely

Second war (WW2) ? Certainly ... for every body ... and "années troubles" for you :happy1: !

Jobbers

Thanks all.
And the car in my picture shows such a converted pickup?
I start wondering how many of the original pickups built by Citroën do still survive ;).

There is a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost in Belgium that was converted to a truck in the post-war era as well... What a pitty!

I am wondering the same. It's not easy to answer.

Moreover, 2 facts must be taken on consideration :
1- I really think that the german forces appreciated the Citroen original pickups and therefore a lot of them have been requisitioned (good translation ?) and sent to other battle fields (est front ?)
2- Few of them have been disassembled for restauring other C4 or C6.

Sincerely,

Could very well be true. Let's blame it all on the Germans ;).
Actually, it is strange they used so many French cars (like the Renault) instead of using their own cars. Not really in line with the nationalist viewpoint I guess.

Do others agree this should be a C4F?

Bonjour,

Je suis désolé j'ai oublié de mettre la traduction google dans mes messages.

En résumé: la voiture dans mon image ressemble à un C4F, selon Roadster. J'ai demandé confirmation.

Beaucoup de voitures ont été transformés en camions après la guerre, tant de camions survivant n'a pas quitté l'usine en tant que telle.
L'armée allemande a utilisé beaucoup de camions dans leur effort de guerre.

Mon image semble montrer une voiture convertie.

Hello,

I'm sorry I forgot to put the google translation in my messages.

In summary: the car in my picture looks like a C4F, according to Roadster. I asked for confirmation.

Many cars were converted to trucks after the war, so many of the surviving trucks did not leave the factory as such.
The German army used many of the trucks in their war effort.

My picture seems to show a converted car.

That's it I think?

Kind regards, Job

Bonjour

Factory made trucks looked like this

Note that the rear pillar of the body is one sided,converted tourim cars havetwo sided pillars.

The other distinctive feature is the 6 or 8 nuts wheels for more than 500/ 800 kg trucks these using tourism chassis frame.

Les camions d usine ressemblent a cela

Remarquer le montant de caisse arriere a un seul coté les caisses de tourisme transformées ont des montants a deux cotés.
L autre signe distinctif ce sont les roues a 6 ou 8 goujons pour les plus de 500/800 kg ces derniers utilisant des chassis de tourisme.
