A Talbot-Lago T150C SS Teardrop Coupé will be one of the stars at this year’s Concours of Elegance, which takes place from 30 August-1 September.
The Figoni et Falaschi-bodied rarity will be one of 70 concours cars competing for the coveted Best in Show award at Hampton Court Palace this summer.
Fewer than 30 Talbot-Lago T150C SS models were built in the late 1930s.

A roadgoing version of Talbot’s open-wheel T150C racer, the T150C SS Teardrop Coupé was supposedly Antonio Lago’s idea for a car inspired by French artist Géo Ham’s work, entrusted to Paris-based coachbuilder Figoni et Falaschi.
The example heading to Concours of Elegance 2024 is one of the ‘New York’ models, named after the subtly tweaked iteration that first appeared at the New York Auto Show and built from 1937-’38.
It’s also the only example built without a sunroof. Instead, its twin windscreens open outwards to cool the cabin.
