I feel bad because this isn't really fast or anything, but I still thought I would share. It's one of only two Simca 1501 wagons left in NZ. I'm a big Simca fan so if anyone knows anything just send me a pm.

love it!
some of us have the non fast variety of frenchers on here too!
great to have you on board!
Welcome along.
Hope to see the car one day. My Opa had a Simca, spend many years cruising in it.
"Simplecar"
Welcome. Very cool to have another old Frenchie owner on here. What year is your 1501?
It would be good to have a meet up of old frogs... CaM you keen to take the ID to Napier sometime after I've finished the 504 rebuild?
super keens
My 1501 is 1970. Learnt at the international Simca meet that 1970 is the best year for any Simca.
The other wagon is 1974 I think. I'll have to check my spreadsheet when I get home.
EDIT: It's 1971, the other 1501 wagon. Currently I know of 12 Simcas on the road in New Zealand and am looking to expand that number.
Nice. I wish I knew the rego number on my Opa's one. Was a awesome car, bright yellow 1100.
Keep up the good work.

Was this in New Zealand? Because I have been told that New Zealand never had 1100s. Then again, I was also told they never had Ranchos in NZ either.
These are all the Simcas currently with wof that I know of:

It would have been a 1000. Im going of vague childhood memory.
It was yellow though, very yellow. Have never seen another one.
How strange that after 45 years of attrition two of the surviving 1000's had only one car between them on the assembly line (according to chassis numbers)
