Publicity photo of the new Simca 8 Sport Coupé 3/4 rear end. It turned out to be a very distinguished car for the upper-class.
Note the two-piece windscreen and the characteristic three-piece rear window.
Simca had its golden age in the 1950s and 1960s. Shortly after the war the idea of an own sports car appeared in the head office of Simca. In october 1947 head of the Simca company Henri Pigozzi (1898-1964) visited the Milan Car Show. There he was impressed by the Fiat 1100 Cabriolet Élaboré prototype designed by the young Giovanni Michelotti at Studio Pininfarina, which very much remembered him to the fluid silhouette of the Cisitalia 202 Berlinette. Pigozzi obtained the license to build such a sports car. The first prototype was shown at the Paris Salon de l'Automobile in October 1948.
During 1949, the Simca 8 sports car continued to be developed in collaboration with Facel-Métallon, who actually finished the design and built the car.
Finally in October 1949 production could start.
The Simca 8 Sport had an aluminium body and was available as a cabriolet and from April 1950 also as a coupé.
Both models had a two piece windscreen in the beginning. In Oct. 1950 the one-piece windscreen appeared only on the coupé.
For Oct. 1951 the five horizontal bars in the grille on the 8 Sport were replaced by three wider bars.
In April 1952 the 8 Sport was replaced by the Simca 9 Sport.
1221 cc L4 engine.
Ca. 920 kg.
Production Simca 8 Series: Nov. 1937-July 1951 (Berline).
Production Simca 8 Sport Series: Sept. 1949-April 1952.
Production Simca 8 Sport Coupé this version: April 1950-April 1952.

A super rare find on the streets of Havana, Cuba. A Simca Oceane convertible. Obviously it has been modified in the usual Cuban to keep it on the road but still looks good.
11CV SIMCA-FIAT Cabriolet de 1936 pour la France, FIAT 518 "Ardita" Cabriolet pour l'Italie. Très belles lignes de carrosserie, cabriolet 4 places harmonieux. 7 exemplaires connus.
Si Simca lance les bases d'une voiture économique et sportive avec la Simca 1000 Rallye en 1971, il faut attendre février 1972 pour voir une réellement sportive avec la Rallye I. Mais c'est en septembre 1972 que Simca parvient à la voiture la plus homogène. Avec la Rallye 2, Simca implante deux carburateurs double corps Solex dans le moteur 1294 cm3, d'où l'inscription "1294 2DC" à l'arrière (modèle blanc). Avec 82 chevaux à 6200 tr/min, les performances s'approchent de la R8 Gordini. Avec une boite quatre rapports, la vitesse de pointe atteint les 170 km/h. Avec ces nouvelles performances, des modifications sont apportées à la répartition des masses, en transférant le radiateur à l'avant pour un meilleur refroidissement et un poids accru du nez. Avec le gain de puissance, elle obtient également des freins à disque à l'arrière.
