Great model of a beautiful car, Anders! I like it a lot!

You probably took on this 1/16 scale kit because there is no kit of this in 1/24 scale? Someone modified the Ebbro DS21 kit to a convertible. But it is a LOT of work to do. Images can be viewed here: https://www.wettringer-modellbauforum.de/forum/index.php?page=Thread&postID=889174#post889174

Coming back to your model, you managed to create a color that fits the car perfectly. Citroën really had their own special colors back then and they are hard to come by for modellers!

Thank you for the kind words Thomas, much appreciated!! The Heller kit is not bad but yes I do prefer 1/24 scale. I have a few of the Ebbro DS19 and DS21 kits in my stash and actually I'm building one of them right now. The guy in your link made a nice conversion but as you say it takes a lot of work and the risk of ruining an expensive kit.
