The Talbot-Lago Sport is a coupé-bodied sports car introduced by the manufacturer in May 1955 that was Talbot-Lago's last production model. About 71 examples were built. After a couple of years the Talbot-designed engine was replaced with a BMW unit and the car was rebranded as the Talbot-Lago America; the final cars used Simca's flathead V8 of pre-war Ford origins. The car's launch was delayed by the company's parlous financial condition, which continued to undermine its fortunes until the last cars were made, probably in 1959.
