Founded in 1903 by Adolphe Clément-Bayard and Charles Chetwynd as Clement-Talbot, the company was bought by Darracq after the First World War. The company only became Talbot in 1922. In 1935, after the bankruptcy of Sunbeam-Talbot- Darracq, the Italian engineer Anthony Lago took control of the French branch of the company, while the English branch, bought by Rootes, became Sunbeam Talbot, then Sunbeam. The crisis forced Talbot to offer more modest models. The highly successful Talbot T120 Baby inaugurates a new, shorter and lighter chassis and a new, high-performance in-line 6-cylinder OHV engine. This engine develops 90 hp and allows a top speed of 150 km/h thanks to its low weight. This Talbot T120 is presented in very good overall condition. Its very plush interior is entirely original. The coachwork is well preserved, with elegant lines and rare ribbed fenders, and proven mechanical performance. Its mechanics, completely professionally rebuilt and still in the running-in phase, are reliable; the Wilson-type gearbox with revised preselection gears works very well. The transmission and brakes have been rebuilt and adjusted. It is accompanied by an extensive file of body and mechanical invoices, proving that it has been perfectly maintained and is ready to hit the road. In its rear trunk, it has a rare pair of suitcases with its keys!
