Between 1935 and 1960, the brand built the most beautiful cars, inspired, as it could not be otherwise, by the world of racing. One of the most important models was the T26, launched on the market in 1946. Participation in the 24 Hours of Le Mans race was supposed to put Talbot Lago on the map, but the market was not ready for the luxury cars produced by the brand. It didn't take long before Talbot Lago went bankrupt. Fortunately, many beautiful models have been preserved. Almost all Talbots sold in the late 1940s were equipped with Talbot bodies, built in the vast workshops of the manufacturer. However, the T26 Grand Sport (GS) was an exception: these cars were supplied exclusively as bare chassis with a six-cylinder engine, forcing customers to choose a custom body from a specialized coachbuilder. Coachbuilders such as Saoutchik, Franay, Oblin, and Figoni et Falaschi competed for supremacy by surpassing their Talbot designers with their creations.
