Hector Bossaert, a preparer from the north of France, became interested in the DS in the early 1960s when he was responsible for building a coupé version. The " GT19 " was an elegant coupé designed by Frua on a shortened DS base, and 13 examples were built. A cabriolet version was also constructed but the appearance of the DS 21 made modifications to the shell more complex and production was stopped.
The example presented is the only cabriolet listed of the DS21 Bossaert. Using a saloon that had left the factory on 3 February 1966 and was delivered unpainted, Bossaert reduced the wheelbase by almost 50 cm and built a four-seater cabriolet body. The car was then presented to the French vehicle homologation authority, as recorded on the registration document with the mention " DS21 Mod. " Designed as a sporty car, it was equipped with a Jaeger dashboard, Moto-Lita steering wheel and faired fog lamps that were patented by the constructor.
The current owner bought the car in Paris in 1993. It had been restored and had traded its original grey livery in favour of lovely black paintwork. Since then, the owner has carried out various maintenance jobs as recorded in the file of invoices. The hood was renewed in 2014 and the front seats have recently been re-upholstered in black leather. The car is equipped with 5 Robergel wheels. Well-known amongst aficionados of special-bodied DS models, this example is also referenced in the book by Olivier Desserre dedicated to the DS. A unique car, more fun to drive than the standard version, it offers connoisseurs a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Auction estimate: €90 000 / 120 000
