The design of the wings, and the headlamps positioned inside them suggest to me that this is perhaps a pre-war car which has been rebodied. The majority of coachbuilt Simca 8 cars had the post-war style of barchetta bodywork. Even Figoni et Falaschi made some which were relatively subdued.
Was it built post-war, do you know ?
I think that the car is post-war !
Is it by a well known French coach builder?

:thumbsup: for wendax !
But the builder is not easily findable :-\
He live at Louviers ( France )
La carrosserie avait été réalisée par les Ets. Marais à Louviers, probablement dans les années 50 car on peut y trouver une inspiration de la Jowett Jupiter contemporaine, la calandre semble bien provenir d'une Simca 6.
Le châssis est bien celui d'une Fiat 1100 (508 C), le numéro de série 249681 la daterait approximativement de 1938.
L'immatriculation à l'époque était 200 BX 27.
(Body by Marais from the 1950s, chassis is from a Fiat 1100, grille from a Simca 6)
Yes , a Simca 1100 ( Fiat 508c ) by Ets. Marais à Louviers (France ) 1939
