TALBOT Type 150C    Le Mans 1938 n°4

as driven by Rene Lebegue & Rene Carrere

Chassis 82935

First raced as chassis no 82935, the very latest 150C built was Driven by Carrère and Le Begue, it retired in the 101th lap, and curiously, according to the ACO data, in trouble with it’s clutch.
This car resumed the start in 1939 with another number of frame ( N°90202) and fitted for the occasion with an 4,5L engine, which made it a Type 26SS.

The scale of 1/8 is a long-term endeavour, because of the multiple procedures required. One after another, the designer, the draughtsman, the turner, the metal worker, the mill machine operator, the carpenter, the coach-builder, the saddler and the painter work as a team highlighting the passion of the craftsman regarding gesture and material.
