Simca? |

Yes, Simca 1100 Van. |

I guess in UK not many of these were sold as Simca, but when the name changed to Talbot it might have been easier to sell them. But then, even though they were labelled Talbot on the front, they were sold as Dodge Half-ton... |

...so I'd propose to call it 1980 Dodge Half-Ton Van, origin France, built in UK (I guess these were built in Ryton), made for GB. (picture from Retromania #98, September 2002) |

We have two similar ones listed as Dodge 1100 Light Van: /vehicles_make-Dodge_model-1100+Light+Van.html |

Aye, we will need help from UK-members, I guess... |

There's also /vehicle.php?id=177765 and /vehicle.php?id=121837 ... |

AFAIK they were never built at Ryton, always imported. Whether from France or Spain I don't know. |
