PCH, What The Hell IS That Thing Edition: Humber Sceptre or Simca Aronde?
Welcome to Project Car Hell, where you choose your eternity by selecting the project that's the coolest... and the most hellish! We had as close to a tie as you're going to see in the Hell Garage, last time around, with the '77 911 Turbo just barely beating the '78 911 Turbo in the poll. Now it's time to return to some mano-a-mano PCH Superpower action, and not only that- it's time to look at crazy orphan cars from across the ocean, cars that will make passersbyshun you like the freak you areadmire your rebellious spirit. France versus Britain! Simca versus Humber!

Project Car Hell, 1961 Edition: Simca Aronde Or Pair-O-Lincolns?
The Cressida took the win over the Maxima in our Rear-Drive Japanese Sedan Hoonage Edition poll on Wednesday, though not by a decisive margin. Perhaps that's because the Cressida and Maxima are so similar to each other, but we're not going to have that issue today! 57Sweptside has found some hell projects that, while cool, don't have much more in common than the year of manufacture; 57Sweptside gets a coveted PCH Tipster T-shirt for his role in filling some lucky soul's garage with eternaldamnationhappiness!
