Simca Aronde P60 1962
Comments
Metallic. Proven UH origin (open front windows, locking system under the floor, and wheels too large). Two-tone paint well applied. Rims not very beautiful, anyway intended to be changed, while keeping hubcaps. Headlights (glued askew), and tail lights inserted.
See Loco Revue forum about the previously released UH model.
Modifications
Wheels set to the correct diameter.
