Hi there, bonjour

New to this forum, Series IIA diesel 1962.
Annecy, France. (near Geneva)
Once I got it home, I found that:
- the clutch adjuster rod was bent
- rear suspension partial collapse
- starter motor hanging off/disconnected
Plan is (Stage 1):
- Repair starter and replace (got it out, bit of a battle to say
the least – what do I do with it now ?!).
- Drop down gearbox and replace clutch (presumably that's why
rod is bent ?!).
- replace rear chassis member (new rear section to be welded in.
Might get the garage to do that). Maybe springs as well ?
- Get it going (Controle Technique [all round technical
roadworthy test] so I can legalise it)
- Think about Stage 2
Any comments/suggestions to the plan are welcome. Thanks
