1935 Talbot T120 4 door Saloon, probably a 3.5L OHV straight six engine. Talbot- Darraq was formed by the merger of two very early Anglo-French car makers, and they had factories in both Suresnes, near Paris, and London. They took over the ailing Sunbeam Motors of Wolverhampton, England, in 1920, forming Sunbeam-Talbot-Darraq. The Darraq name was gradually dropped, and Sunbeam Talbot was eventually taken over by the Rootes Group of Coventry in 1935.
Fond memories, because for a brief time in the early 1960's, I owned a 1936 3½ litre Talbot BG110, one of the last two ever built. It was assembled at the Rootes factory in Coventry, and fitted with a James Young aluminium drop-head coupe body, identical to that fitted to the 4¼ Litre MX Series Bentley. Those were the Days !!
