Hi,
Ive been trying to get some info in the Simca Rallye but havnt really had much luck apart from the Simca owners club which is practically non exsistent !
Anyway could any give me some info on these beautys ?
What sort of price (if I'm lucky enough to find one) would I be looking at paying for one (series 1 or 2) ?
Any other info would be great
Thanks

If you're referring to one of these beauties then it's going to be a case of getting lucky and looking in all the usual and probably unusual places for one. Have you considered an import? Might be better to get one in from France maybe, although they're bound to command a higher price. There was an article on a couple of brothers who do a lot with them in one of the early Retrocar magazines, and one of the writers bought one from them. Chances are that car may be still about somewhere. How serious are you? Oh, and hello and welcome to the forum

Aren't there like 2 of them left in the UK or something?
Our school had a Simca 1000 Sport like that but red with black trim and bonnet to teach the kids in engineers cadets how to work on cars before they let tem loose on the Landrovers.
