They look more Ariane-like when you consider their radiators:
The car on the left is all plastic by an unknown French manufacturer. The one on the right I bought second-hand from a brocante vide grenier a few weeks ago in France. Its manufacturer is Norev and it has a metal chassis and clear windows
Apparently, Simca took over a Ford factory in France after the Second World War and there was a cross-fertilisation of Fords with Simcas thereafter.
The Ford Vedette became the Simca Vedette and then Simca fitted the smaller Simca Aronde engine into it and it became the Simca Ariane.
