Talbot Samba Rally Car


Picture
This little chap arrived with us as a rust free paint stripped bodyshell; our instructions were to build a Group B replica Talbot Samba .
We modified the bodyshell as per period Peugeot Talbot Sport specifications and fabricated a weld in MSA rollcage. We managed to source a composite plastic wide arch kit, along with other hard to find parts. The owner was already in possession of a suitable engine and gearbox assembly.

The car has since been sold to a new owner, we are still under instruction to finish the project. Fingers crossed it will make an appearance in 2014......

February 2014 - we have installed a dummy engine so we can start the plumbing and wiring of the engine bay. Most of the interior is now complete. We are now awaiting the arrival of the front suspension components along with the final engine and gearbox assembly.
