Car of the Week: 1961 Renault 4CV

Sometimes you don't know exactly what you have. For one owner it took decades to realize he had a rare Renault 4CV.

It took Mark Harrell quite a while to figure out exactly what kind of four-wheeled automotive treasure his dad dragged home one day back in 1968.

About 45 years, in fact.

David Harrell was an over-the-road truck driver who like to tinker with mechanical stuff when he was home. After a long trip to Texas back in '68, he came home and told his family he had a surprise in the back of his semi-trailer. The senior Harrell had found a weird-looking little French car for sale along the road in Texas and decided it needed to come home with him to Wisconsin.
