Welcome and thanks for your interest in this article! It is now just a stub and could really use input from seasoned editors - or actually all kinds of editors bar outright vandals.

[edit] Simca 1000 Coupé

What about the Simca 1000 Coupé ? does it go in a separate article with the Simca 1200 Coupé ?Hektor 17:39, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

I didn't have too much information on the Coupes, so I decided not to include them in this article. The solution is either to have the Coupes included in the article or have a separate article on both of them. Separating the Coupes from each other would be rather absurdal IMHO. I'd keep them in a separate article for the time being - perhaps you might start the article?
In general, I am not that big a fan of the 1000, so I don't think I will be overly involved with this article, but I really wanted to start it as it was sorely missing - especially now that I got hold of the great pics :D Bravada, talk - 19:25, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Simca 1118

The article is not clear to me. Do you mean that the Simca 1118 is the US version of the Simca 1000 or of the Simca 1100? I think it was the US Simca 1100. Hektor 18:42, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Well, that's the problem with Simcas - what would technically be one model can go by several names. Although AFAIK no model was explicitly going by the name of "Simca 1100". So the answer will be - probably it was a Simca 1000 with the 1100 engine (or, more precisely, the 1.1-litre or 1118 cc engine). But do check the references, I was writing that in a bit of a hurry - as I said, the article is a pile of rubbish as of now... Bravada, talk - 19:25, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
Here is a referenceHektor 19:51, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
Pfff... It just occured to my dum-dum tiny brain what actually you have been asking about :D Of course this was a Simca 1000 - the Simca 1100 as such was exported to the US as Simca 1228 or somehing, IIRC. :D Bravada, talk - 21:05, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Legenda for table

I think the table could use a legenda or an update. I think 'ch' means horsepower, and 'F' means French Francs. Pukkie 07:32, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
