      My car also has dimpled roof. It is also a D Super (built end 1970, I believe); first on the road Jan 1971.I read in a Citroen book that D Supers of that age sometimes came with roof clouds contrasting with the body. Mine is Bleu Platine (AC632) and the roof is a kind of light grey (almost silvery). How do I found out if the roof colour is original? Probably impossible? Do cars with contracting body and roof normally have two discs (one for each colour) in the engine bay? Back to the roof … is it a relatively inexpensive paint job. Does it have to be a specialist DS garage that does it. The Cant rail may need replacing on mine too.

        I forgot to show the pictures of the refurbished wings. The wiring looks like it is all in place but maybe some of the bulbs may have been damaged during the refurbishment. I will struggle on. Horn works, indicators work. Headlights and sidelights not.

          I finished cleaning the rear wings and had them treated and painted. I guess I have to put Dinitrol 3125 4941 on them now. Seems a shame. I am onto the front wings now. The front wings did not have ant black sealer on them. Do the front wings not need Dinitrol? The front wings have a bit of paint that is bubbling near the headlight.IMG-2199
