From wich model do they fit from the simca family?

I do need balljoints for upper and lower trailerarms and berings for rear wheels and so on.

Anybody that have any tip of easy-to-find-parts?

Upper balljoints are easy to find. Shared with Horizons, Solara, 1307,8,1510, 1100, Murena, ranchos and others.
µ
Lower balljoints ... Beware. First removing the old one is very tricky. If you know, it will come out, otherwhise ... µ
Second, there are 2 size. Very similar but incompatible...
For the bearings, also 2 types ... What is your chassis number, do you still have the original arms ?

The rear bearing changed in 1978 and the front one at a different date ...

OK. To be more exact

According to the Quinton Hazell Catalogue 2007 for the Matra Bagheera

Front wheel bearings QWB221 to and chassis no 36467
Front wheel bearings QWB231 from and chassis no 36468
Rear wheel bearings QWB221 to and chassis 38515
Rear wheel bearings QWB231 from and chassis 38516

I believe that the numbers are the body numbers found at the engine lid.

Wonderful! Thank you!

X35505X113245, does it say on the chassis on the passengerside under the windscreen.
It is an aluminium plate in the trunk with the chassisnumber on too. And one thin alu-plate in the spare-tire-room.

Right?

I think it is the metal strip with a number at the rear right corner of the engine lid.
This is what mine looks like:

You have a 1975 1290 cc Bagheera. So all the first bearings.

Concerning the chassis numbers and plates.

An important remark is that your Bagheera may differ due to local legislation (which may have evolved with the years) Here, in Belgium, on some of my Bags, I got an additional plate.
Normally the chassis number is stamped on the passenger side, front of the windscreen.
On the opposite site, close to the wippers engine, you'll find another number starting with ... a country code. (FRA for France, BEL for Belgium, ALL for Germany, ...) and last, in the boot lid, what you have on the pictures.
However, the very very first Bags seems to have had different stampings
