Blip: Just A Tidy Simca
Blip: Just A Tidy Simca-April 2024

Image for article titled Blip: Just A Tidy Simca

Simca was Chrysler’s French subsidiary, but they were very much doing their own thing. In the late ‘60s and ‘70s they were making these really appealing small, tidy, boxy rear-engined cars, sort of like Frenchier NSU Prinzes or equally French but smaller Renault R8s or R10s. Anyway, I just like how crisp this one looks, and the careful under-engine lid ducting.
