Simca 1100

Djetset · « **Reply #2 on:** November 01, 2009, 04:54:19 AM »

It is a Simca 1100, but if you look closely this one is a bit different, so know what this particular one is?

HEMI 426 · « **Reply #3 on:** November 01, 2009, 11:56:51 AM »

Simca 1204, GLS, GLX or a TI...?

Djetset · « **Reply #4 on:** November 02, 2009, 05:06:47 AM »

No, a greater difference than any of those Simca 1100 variants.

Experts, what's special about this Simca?

metalshapes · « **Reply #6 on:** November 10, 2009, 12:06:18 AM »

3 door.

I did not know they made one...

I've only seen 5 doors.

Djetset · « **Reply #7 on:** November 10, 2009, 02:53:19 AM »

Simca made a 3-door hatch, as well as a 5-door, plus a 5-door Break (wagon) and a 3-door Break for a limited time, plus various light commercial vehicle derivatives. It's not the fact that this is a three-door that makes this one special though.

There's some special about the glass? First car with privacy glass?

studhamsmudger · « **Reply #9 on:** November 13, 2009, 06:43:14 AM »

Is it the first car with a heated rear screen?

Djetset · « **Reply #10 on:** November 16, 2009, 02:59:37 PM »

No, neither the first car with privacy glass or a heated reat window, that I know of.

guido66 · « **Reply #11 on:** November 19, 2009, 02:50:49 PM »

The rear screen is larger than normal?

Djetset · « **Reply #12 on:** November 20, 2009, 04:55:57 AM »

Yes, the rear screen is large than normal. That's what makes this Simca 1100 distinctive. Do you know why and what this is?

guido66 · « **Reply #13 on:** November 21, 2009, 04:54:43 AM »

A coupé prototype?

Simca 1100 Pierre Cardin, first seen at Paris Auto Show 1969 : specific tail gate and interior.

Djetset · « **Reply #15 on:** November 23, 2009, 03:17:04 AM »

Well done Franck, it is the special Pierre Cardin Simca 1100, which had a different tailgate, bumpers, wheels, colour and interior. I'll dig out a photo of the complete car when i get back home next weekend.

Djetset · « **Reply #16 on:** November 24, 2009, 03:12:49 PM »

As promised, here's a bigger (but not better) photo of the complete car.

Here's a bad quality but colour picture. Seems strange that images of this car are so hard to come by, it must've been exhibited at fairly high profile events in period. I guess this is the original precursor to the glut of 'designer' special edition cars in the '80s...
