David WilkinsJust in case anyone feels cheated because I posted motorcycles rather than cars today as part of the current BMW sequence, here’s a bonus <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/davidsdailycar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#davidsdailycar</a> featuring the Talbot Alpine hatch and Solara saloon (in other markets, these were earlier badged as Simcas). The Festival of the Unexceptional took place on Saturday, and I saw this pair in the car park of the nearby hotel at which I stayed the night before (first pic) and at the show itself (second pic).<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Simca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Simca</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Talbot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Talbot</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/FOTU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FOTU</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WeirdCarMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WeirdCarMastodon</a>

Chromblitzen (Classic-Cars)The Simca 1300 and Simca 1500 are large family cars manufactured by the French automaker Simca in its Poissy factory from 1963 to 1966 and between 1966 and 1975 in revamped versions, as the Simca 1301 and 1501. ...<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simca_1300/1500" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simca_1300/1500</a><a href="https://weird.autos/tags/Simca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Simca</a>

David WilkinsI’ve been concentrating quite a bit on British cars lately, so I thought I’d go French for a few days for a bit of variety. Meet the Simca 1100 pick-up - although this example, as one of the last mid-eighties examples, was badged as a Talbot. With the 1100 hatch, Simca basically invented the Golf years before Volkswagen did - but the pick-up has a big claim to fame as well. More tomorrow!

David WilkinsYesterday <a href="https://expressional.social/@lionelb" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@lionelb</a> raised the question of the similarity of the Renault 8 to the Simca 1000. Both follow the same rear-engined formula, and are in the same size bracket but the main influence on the Simca’s design came from collaboration with Fiat, the French company’s main shareholder at the time the 1000 was introduced in 1961. I saw this late example - the 1000 survived until 1978 - at <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/RetroClassics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RetroClassics</a> Stuttgart in 2016.<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Simca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Simca</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/WeirdCarMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WeirdCarMastodon</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/davidsdailycar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#davidsdailycar</a>

thecarfactoidsFactoid Extra: Chrysler UK’s ‘ ‘78 Show’ revealed the problems facing their 600-odd dealers at the time - a collection of mainly ageing cars & just one ‘modern’ one (in the guise of the Alpine)…And some were particularly vintage with several from the 1960s: the Simca 1000 originally dated from 1961, the Hillman Hunter from 1966 & the Simca 1100 from 1967 (though its layout was still contemporary). Still, plenty of room for a discount if popped along… <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/weirdcarmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#weirdcarmastodon</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Chrysler" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chrysler</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/simca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#simca</a>

thecarfactoidsFactoid Extra: Yes, the engine made a characteristic rattle (so that’s dealt with), but the Chrysler Alpine really was the future British family car though it would take Vauxhall & Ford to prove it years later… Btw, in Europe, the Simca 1307/8 had a far better reception including being the 2nd best selling imported in West Germany for 1976 & outselling the R5 (though the perennial German champ of the R4 was in its usual 1st place)… <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/weirdcarmastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#weirdcarmastodon</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Chrysler" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chrysler</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/simca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#simca</a>

David WilkinsWhile the rebranding of <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Chrysler" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Chrysler</a> Europe as Talbot did not succeed, the choice of name itself was quite clever as it had previously been used by both the British (formerly <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Rootes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Rootes</a>) and French (formerly <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Simca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Simca</a>) sides of the operation.
