Fw: Simca!

["Geoff Harrison" <geoff_h@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Not a Simca. Looks a bit like a Hillman. Don't know if they went stateside. 
That detetective in
the scruffy overcoat back then drove a Simca didn't he? Sold by Chrysler in 
Aust. The slogan
was "Some car this Simca" and many variations followed. Detective Colombo 
was the guy.
