Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1951 Talbot-Lago T26 stands out as a unique, coach-built example with a rich history, including single ownership for the past 40 years. While it has been repainted, it retains its original upholstery and mechanically sound engine and gearbox, presenting a rare opportunity for collectors. Note: sold without technical inspection.
Condition

The car is described as being in 'superbly preserved original condition' when purchased by the current owner 40 years ago, and has been driven very little since. While it has been repainted, it retains its original upholstery and the engine and gearbox are running well. The odometer reading is likely original. However, the absence of a technical inspection suggests some potential underlying issues.
