Market commentary
Restored in 1955 using an abandoned chassis and original body from another car which is not unreasonable for a car of this vintage. None of the Tallman cars are fresh out of the restoration shop but they have the allure of being well sorted for touring with no stories to make the bidders shy away and that character was reflected in the prices they brought.
