I began the search last summer for one of those wonderful crinkly old Citroen Hy vans to turn into a mobile shop/gallery. They were made in France and Belgium between 1947 and 1981 as light weight panel vans.
I discovered a company in Cornwall that imports and restores them..in December I purchased ‘Emil’ a beautiful 1978 van.
Used as a farm vehicle, to transport sheep and wine.
The interior, empty of its cargo and looking a little sad…
Work on ‘Emil’ begins
