1951 Simca Huit Sport Cabriolet For Sale by Auction

French title
Chassis n° 898621

- Highly elegant design
- Interesting mechanical accessories
- Smooth patina

The Simca-Sport story begins at the Paris Motor Show in 1948, when Simca exhibits an elegant Pininfarina designed prototype, as requested by the brand. Enthusiastic by this car, the boss of Simca, Henri Pigozzi, decides to commercialize it and entrusts Facel Metallon to craft it. It returns to the exhibition the following year in coupe and convertible versions, with the Aronde substructure and the name Simca-Sport. These highly elegant cars remind us of the Cisitalia cars of the same era.
The Simca 8 Sport we are offering is a desirable convertible version which was sold new in Portugal. Its current owner acquired it from a German collector five years ago. Having undergone a restoration a while ago, the elegant blue paint displays some minor imperfections. The upholstery and convertible top are in good condition. The engine is equipped with an interesting dual carburettor intake manifold and an optional aluminium oil sump. A test drive has confirmed that the car is in satisfying working condition. This coachbuilder's automobile with rare elegance has the advantage of combining rarity, ease of use and reliability.

For sale in our upcoming auction on November 5th in Paris.

45 000 € - 60 000 €
