	Well, exiting times, we dragged my wagon out into the sunlight today for the first time in over 15 years! still not at my house yet, (wont be for a couple of weeks) but got to take a good look over it, no rust except for the tailgate and a small floor section. very little panel damage, interior is even complete and possibly useable with a good wash and some minor repairs. Anyway, here she is at the moment, all the trim bits missing at the moment are in the car, including some very cool bonuses such as a very rare optional floor shift.

	Go over the mechanicals and see if I can get it going as is. A new window, some 16" steelies and a couple of inches lowering. Long term a modern driveline (mx5?), fresh paint and some mid-cons but visially period

	I'll be watching this with interest, it's certainly something different.

	Cool car. Shame about that rearwindow, I bet a new one isn't that easy to find. My mom had a Simca back in the days before I was born. Seen it only on pictures, but it was a stunning car.

	LOL, the old fergie had towing duties to get the cars out of the shed they had been in. As for the side window, it's flat glass so dead easy.

	Wow, what a find! This looks a lot better than what I had imagined from the general thread! And is that a spare front windscreen inside the car? Absolutely magic. I take back the words of caution I said about this car earlier, it looks like the best possible start for a project car. If it was any better than it would be a roadworthy classic instead of a project.

	yeah, that's a spare screen. I could have had 2 spare complete sedans too if I wanted (the ones in the general thread) but alas no room. I've left the sedans as complete as possible, but have still managed to end up with doubles of basically every bakerlite and alloy part except the indicator lever, rearview mirror, glovebox lid and upper steeering column cover.
