Field find: 1950 Simca 8 Sport Convertible

s1

Yes indeed these cars once were abandoned everywhere, including fields, just like this one that has still its body only because it’s made of aluminium.

s2

The car is sold with a bill of sale only and it’s easy to understand why: nobody provides you with a title in a field: jokes apart this is a problem for whoever is interested in this car outside the U.S.A. as without a title it is very difficult to go through european customs.

Of course the problems here are not only about bureaucracy: this car has still a body, an engine, a gearbox, a water cooler along with the windshield but no much more than these, moreover the front end has been battered and it will be not easy at all to fix it but, at the end of the day, it all depends from the final price. Find it for sale here in Long Beach, CA, with bidding at $4,500 and reserve not met.
