Since it is more than just an accessory on an existing car I'd propose to list it as 1939 - La Découvrable - Simca 5. So a new make!

DynaMike ◊ 2009-03-04 14:44	There wee several companies that made conversions on a Simca 5; e.g. there was Siata-Eudel, with a similar Matford-like grille and a ohc-engine. Siata-Eudel had advertisments with just their name on it. But yes, I guess it would be better indeed to list this car as Simca 5 La Découvrable, to keep things less complicated.
