It is a orginial car

This weeks rusty car is a 1948 - 1954 Ford Vedette. The Vedette was build in Poissy in France until Ford sold its french plants to Simca. The Vedette is powered by the famous Ford Flathead V8 . The engine that was used was based on the V8-60 Flatty. Interesting to know that the good old Ford Flathead was build unter Chrysler logo until 1967 in Brasil. Simca ended production of the Vedette/Chambrod in the early 60'S. The manufacturing lins where then shipped to Brazil where Chrysler built the Vedette until 1967. The high perfermance version was the Emi Sul., like the Ardun Flatheads. But thats an other story.

The Transcontiental used the cab of a Berliet, chassis from a Ford Louisville and a Cummins engine

Yes

I'm working a Ford Transcontinental from KFS. I used a Italeri FH16 kit for the chassis. The wheels be changed. The main project in this case is the traler not the Transconti.The trailer is one of the kits that the Dutch model Truck Club (DMTC) had sold at the on the Road Show, Jabekke/Belgium. It represent a 2 axle style trailer from the 80's. It is a cnc milled kit where you have to add details like brakes, wheels & tires etc.. The kit includes a simple spring suspension design. I had change this with a trailer suspension kit together with some York brake drums and trailer axle kit from KFS. The load will be one of the 20ft trailer from Italeri. The wheels & tire combination will be some doubles.

This time the car in question was provided by Matt Bacon. He choose a French built car from 1991 - 2000. It is powered by a 2.8l or 3.0l V6 and It is named Venturi Atlantique. Thanks for providing this wonderful car for our quiz Matt.
