Je ne suis pas un restaurateur, la peur de mal faire m’empêche de toucher à la mécanique. Je me contente de soigner l’apparence, le chiffon microfibre et la Nénette à portée de main. Il est vrai aussi que je n’ai guère le loisir de m’occuper de mes véhicules. J’ai à peine le temps de les faire rouler régulièrement, mais ceci est une autre histoire… Pourquoi vous parler de mes soucis de collectionneur ? Pour, en fait, vous dire que, quelle que soit la façon de l’aborder, notre plaisir de posséder et de faire rouler nos véhicules est bien réel. Alors, si quelqu’un, pour un quelconque motif pseudo-écologique et franchement démagogique, s’avise de m’empêcher de vivre ma passion, il me trouvera sur sa route !

    Ds & Sm Heritage

    DS & SM HERITAGE DS HERITAGE The story of the DS began long before 1955. The origins of the car go all the way back to 1938, when Citroën Chairman and CEO Pierre Boulanger was thinking about the successor to the Traction Avant. He was convinced that the new car above all had to be comfortable. And so a new project was launched, with the code name VGD, short for «Voiture de Grande Diffusion», or «mass-produced car». He entrusted the project to André Lefèbvre, an aeronautics engineer by training. Alongside these two men, the Citroën team also featured other talented individuals, notably Flaminio Bertoni (sculpture) and Paul Mages (suspension). But with the advent of war, and the ensuing occupation and wartime restrictions, the VGD project was put on hold. The project gradually got back on track after the end of the war. In 1952 L’Auto-Journal published a scoop, in the form of a drawing of the future Citroën and its technical characteristics. Citroën did its utmost to hush up the affair by taking the magazine to court. The brand wanted to keep the project a secret at all costs. 4 In October 1955, a bombshell hit the 42nd Paris Motor Show. A car took centre stage on the Citroën stand: the DS 19. A flying saucer, with bright colours and a magic word, «oleo-pneumatic», a system that appeared to do everything in the driver’s place. From the suspension and brakes to the steering and gearbox, softness was the keyword. Only the engine was conventional. But it wasn’t just about technology.

Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.
