Hemmings Motor News Blog

Hemmings Motor News has been around since 1954. We're proud of our heritage, but we're also more than the Hemmings full of classifieds that your father subscribed to. Aside from new editorial content every month in Hemmings, we have three monthly magazines: Hemmings Muscle Machines, Hemmings Classic Car and Hemmings Sports and Exotic Car.

While our editors traverse the country to find the best content for those magazines, we find other oddities related to the old-car hobby that we really had no place for - until now. With this blog, we're giving you a behind-the-scenes look at what we see and what we do during the course of putting out some of the finest automotive magazines you'll ever read.

Cool Cars: 1947 Talbot-Lago Record T26

Posted November 18, 2010 9:00 AM by dstrohl

Whenever I go on a photo shoot, I always try to match the location to the car. Muscle cars do well in gritty industrial areas, trucks from the 1950s do well in farm settings, etc. The sellers of this 1947 Talbot-Lago Record T26 obviously feel the same way, considering the European castle setting for the photos and video that accompany the classified. Well done. From the seller's description:

"The wonderful coachwork was designed by the grand master Figoni for his friend Anthony Lago, owner of Talbot. The interior is sumptuous – soft, solid leather and a lot of delightful details confer to this car an extraordinary charm. The 4.5 liter six cylinder engine provides an awful 170 horsepower and a torque of 200 Newton meters and has a double overhead camshaft."
