AI Listing Summary

This 1950 Talbot Lago T26 GS is a rebuilt classic, styled after the iconic Figoni Falashi "Goutte d'eau." It features a powerful 4.5-liter engine and a meticulous recreation of the original bodywork, with 8,000 hours invested since 2002. The car has been owned by the same person since 1990.
