1971 PUEGEOT 504 CABRIOLET CONVERTIBLE RHD
This is another project car that we bought, anybody that appreciates the beautiful design by Pininfarina will love this car.
It is also a very rare RHD 504 cabriolet, that was only produced in LHD. Conversions to RHD were only carried out in the UK under license until 1975.
We believe that only 80 cars were ever converted to RHD.
The car has a rugged four-cylinder, fuel injected 2.0 litre engine with the nicer, slanting triple rear lights and double headlights.
The original 4-speed gearbox was replaced with a later 5-speed box which makes for a very nice drive.
We started restorations of the car in May 2019, removing rusted sections and repairing previous welding work that was not done correctly.
Scroll down to the restoration section to see pictures of this process.

Restorations
May 2019
We have been busy stripping the vehicle down, removing the engine and the whole interior. We found previous welding work that was not up to scratch, along with rusted areas that need to be replaced. We have replaced the driver’s side floor panel as of the 31/05/2019
June 17
We have exposed more rust and have replaced it from the underside of the car. We have yet to finish the front passenger side flooring and we are working on that today. The car has come a long way since we started. This takes great welding and fabricating skills, thanks to our welder Boris, who takes great pride in his work and never fails to impress us on any of the work he has done for us.
August
The welding and fabricating portion of the body work is finished now and we are ready to begin the full re-spray of the car.
