Talbot Lago T26 Grand Sport by Saoutchik (Chropynska)

The restoration of Talbot Lago T26 Grand Sport Saoutchik chassis 110101 exemplifies the highest standards of automotive preservation. This five-year project meticulously returned the car to its 1948 Paris Motor Show specification, including its original colour scheme and distinctive gold-plated interior, culminating in a Best of Show nomination at Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.

Completed in March 2024, the restoration showcases the exceptional craftsmanship of Chropynska’s Czech workshop, whose previous works have garnered Best of Show honours at Château Chantilly and Salon Privé. Their commitment to authenticity and technical excellence continues to set benchmarks in preserving significant coachbuilt masterpieces.
