Talbot 105 3 litre Brooklands Special 1933

1933 Talbot 105 3 litre Brooklands special. Chassis number: TBA Registration number: TBA Mille Miglia Eligible. A beautifully crafted Talbot 105 Brooklands replica. This car boasts the largest 3 litre iteration of Talbots Pre war efforts. In 1931 four 105s were tuned to provide a reported 119 bhp, at 4,800 rpm.

In "Brooklands trim" further tuning and an increased compression ratio of 10:1 gave rise to a claimed 125 bhp. This is thus a fast open tourer well suited to rallying. The car is finished in fresh black paint to the exterior & sports the racing number 3 to the sides. It is a comfortable 4 seater when required making it very versatile.

The seats are finished in biscuit coloured leather to the front & rear with matching brown carpets. The dash is of walnut with a full quotient of period instrumentation to the centre. Given the lightness of the coachwork this is a fast car well able to run in modern traffic.

The car is fitted with a Wilson pre select gear box well suited to competition work allowing one to select the required gear for an upcoming corner well in advance of actually arriving at said corner. The car comes with a tonneau cover for the rear seats which may also be used as a luggage area. Twin aero screens are fitted to the scuttle & a spare wheel to the drivers side.

The front wings turn in unison with the front wheels. The car is in fine order & is supplied freshly serviced & ready for immediate use.
