6 cylinder, inline pushrod overhead valve engine. Capacity 2366cc, 18hp. Coil ignition, single carburettor, manual 4 speed gearbox. Cooling by water pump and thermostatic radiator shutters. Body by Darracq. Model History The Talbot 75 fits right in the middle of the Talbot range of cars, ie 14/45, 65, 75, 90, 105. It is a very economical and usable model, which gets its designation from its top speed. LJ5854 This model is known as a Talbot AM75 Foursome Coupe. Only two cars in this style were made and this is the only survivor. The car left the factory coloured grey with a black roof, but was painted in its current livery by a previous owner. She is wellloved by her present custodian. In the last four years she has toured Europe extensively, visiting France four times in the last two years. The present owner prefers driving this unique car far more than a modern car with all its bells and whistles!
