156 : Around 2000, many episodes showing the 156 but, surprising, no photo of Matula at the wheel of this Alfa.


These photos are not from the serie "a case for two".

159 (2006 and after) : Only two photos of this nice car.





80 years old, Claus Theo Gartner, happy owner of a spider Alfa model 1993, is driving still today this beautiful cabriolet.

Three generations of Fiat 500

Fiat 500 aka Topolino or Mickey Mouse (1936 - 1949)
Simca 5


At Nanterre near Paris, Simca is licensed to do Fiat 500 (Simca 5) and Fiat 1100 - 508 C Nuova Balilla (Simca 8).

Expected as a front wheels drive, Fiat 500 has its little four-aligned-cylinder engine just behind the radiator gril.
In front of serious transmission issues, the engineer Dante Giacosa came back to a classic rear propulsion.

The French Simca 5 launched also in spring 1936.

The basic version has no bumpers.


Ready for the elegance contest ?

Simca 5 : A convertible version is also available.

Above, the two-door saloon.
Below, the "Giardiniera" (break). To save some room, the motor is tilted on its right side and air entrance is lateral.

Above, the "Gamine" bodyworked by Vignale.
Below, the "Giardiniera".

1965 : doors opening in the "right way".

1968 : Luxurious Fiat 500 L

Fiat 126 (1973 - 1992)


A fashionable body for the Fiat 500 plateform, Fiat 126 seem modern but we could find it less glamorous than a Fiat 500 L for example.

Fiat 126 bis from 1988, made in Poland.

Return of the Giardiniera principle with tilted motor and lateral air entrance to get two trunks, front and back.
This time the bi-cylinder is water cooled.

1992 : Close from the Fiat Panda, the new Cinquecento is not as cheap as the 126 bis, soon stopped.

Renault Frégate (1951 - 1960)


Frégate Amiral 1953 - First front face.


Frégate Grand Pavois 1956 - Second front face

Last Frégate 1959-60 - Third front face

Dashboard and interior of the Frégate Transfluide. It is the name of the version "automatic gearbox", a simple converter connected to a classic gearbox two speeds.

Bigger back lights and weird decoration above it for the last Frégate.

- Chevrons behind the chromed radiator grill
