Simca wanted Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Hello I’m looking to buy a 59 simca. I don’t really know much about them. Are there any websites I can look them up on. Are there any things I need to look for when viewing one. Are there any common faults with them that I should be aware of. Any advice or help would be appreciated thanks Edited October 6, 2019 by Simca wanted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simca wanted Posted October 28, 2019 Author Share Posted October 28, 2019 Hello thank you for your reply. I have now bought one. Do you own a simca robin33ba07? The one i bought has recently been re painted so all it’s original markings have long gone. Does anyone one know what stencils or insignia it should have on it?? It’s hard to find these vehicles pictured closeup online. I seem to want to do the complete opposite to most people and turn it from a shoot wagon back to a military spec vehicle!

Slimjim176 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I recently emailed Kerry at RR Services to enquire about spares for the Sumb, but got a brief reply saying that they were unable to help at present. Does anyone know if they still have trucks/spares? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simca wanted Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) Hi I don’t surpose anyone know where’re get window rubbers from. Or even what the type is called for my front windscreens. I have a simca Marmon sumb with very cracked and past it seals. I have tried my local kit car company and there catalogs didn’t have anything similar. I can’t seem to find online either. Any help would be great. I may even think about replacing the hole window if anyone knows of 2 good condition ones for sale. Cheers guys.
