Equipment
RHD. One owner since 1988 and driven regularly through 2008. Lucas acetylene headlights, kerosene sidelights and taillight, serpents head horn, wood framed cranked windshield, varnished wood spoke wheels, dual spares on the right running board, Smiths speedometer. Rebodied at some point long ago and owned by a succession of enthusiasts who have used its performance capability regularly. Sound, usable and attractive.
Market commentary
This is a very cool old car, loaded with accessories and brightly trimmed accoutrements. It brought a reasonable price in todays British Pounds, but is a little rich by U.S. standards, where a 3.8 litre Talbot doesnt have the appeal of a 40 or 50 hp American car. It is reasonable for what and where it is, however.
