1910 Talbot 4AB Waggonette

 

 

This fascinating 12hp Talbot was apparently delivered in chassis form to The Western Motor Company of Glasgow in February 1910, and is known to have served in France as an ambulance during WWI. The current rear entry Waggonnette body is presumed to have been a post-1918 addition and was fitted to the car when it was unearthed in Scotland during the 1970s. A restoration ensued and the refurbished Talbot  featured in the 1978 film version of the Thirty-Nine Steps as a shooting party brake. 'HS 316' is finished in Cream over Brown . It has a four cylinder side valve engine splash feed lubrication with a four speed crash gearbox. Rear wheel main brakes on the hand brake and emergency transmission disc brake.
