I think a vehicle per decade for the last century sounds right Smile

Same engine block as the Talbot isn't it? Except with a cast iron head.

It looks like an evolution, the manifolding looks the same although the water pump arrangements are different.

Dave, the 1940s are already ticked off (big Dodge, Fergie)! As are the 20s, 30s, 50s, 60s, and 70s. Nothing earlier though, very remiss of me Smile

I think that will have the same basic engine as the Talbot 4-litre.

Yup! Both Super Snipe and Pullman have the 4 litre engine.

Nice car, huge and rare. Will need plenty of money spent though.

Only at £1796 now with a few hours to go, I assume there's an ash frame lurking behind the aluminium outer panels on the main body?
