Equipment
RHD. 18 chrome wire wheels, sliding sunroof, skirts, fog lights, vee windshield, Wilson pre selector, louvered hood, 2,650mm short wheelbase. Restored in the 1990s and freshly repainted for the auction. Nice enough; a great tour car with attractive, modern fastback coachwork but not close to being show ready. One of just three T26 Grand Sports with Franay coachwork.
Market commentary
A very attractive and unusual car with the big 4 1 2 litre six and three carbs, this is a handsome and unusual example of one of Frances great road cars. It brought its highest and best result here in London where its performance and style are appreciated. This is a lot of car, but not much if any more than its price in Dollars.
