This was one of the cars entered in the Coys auction which took place during the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1994.
It's obviously a Talbot Lago, but apart from that I can't find any information about this particular car.
Early Talbot Lago sportscars were the T26C Grand Prix cars with a widened body to accommodate two seats, and were fitted with lights and simple motorcycle-style mudguards.
For the 1952 Le Mans 24 hour race, motorcycle-style mudguards were banned and cars had to have all-enveloping bodywork. Some of the T26C Talbot Lagos were rebodied in this style and this is perhaps one of those.
