Hello,
I am hoping to find other fans of Chapron cars here (esp. Citroens).
More to the point, information on that coachbuilder seems to be difficult to come by. Even the almighty Internet only yields bits here and there.
Question: What are the best sources (books, websites, blogs, etc. - anything really) that you might have discovered over the years?
Many thanks

Hi Chapron and 
to the forum.
I had a quick delve not using google and came up with this which may be of interest:
DDG yielded this site which does seem to have a fair range of Citroen conversions!!

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!
