Okay, put on your deep-south Appalachian-American accent, and say "Citroen".

Came out "Centurion", didn't it?

LMAO! XD

Well he did get three things right, it has a column-shifted 4-speed, a crank starter in the front, and it needs restoring.

Its also heinously overpriced, I saw a 59 on CL not long ago for 4k in far better shape and with what all needed restoring clearly highlighted.

Sure it will sell well under that heading. Even searching misspelled versions of Citroen won't get you to that ad.

Maybe that guy really believes it was made by Cadillac? In England?

A French guy would be insulted. Twice.

That is an interesting starting price... Why would you post something on ebay that you didn't even know what it was, or without researching what the going price was.

Dude, English Cadillac Centurions are SOOOO rare, there wasn't a single one when he posted. That's a steal at twice the price.
