How to Restore the Bodywork of a Citroen DS?

Model: DS DS Various
Part: Body

The vehicle we are addressing is a Citroen DS 4, specifically the series produced in 1974, thus classified as a historic vehicle. Being dated, it goes without saying that, especially if poorly preserved, it presents anomalies, primarily in the bodywork. This video tutorial shows how to perform a complete restoration by entirely removing rust and reconstructing the parts that are now rotten and irrecoverable. Stripped of all interiors and the engine, sand down the entire affected surface, remove the points to be replaced, apply primer, and proceed to filler and paint.
