. French racecar drivers Philippe de Massa and Norbert Jean Mahé drove this Talbot Lago 150 C-SS of the British racing team TASO Mathieson with starting number #8 at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June 1939 -- the last racing event before World War II broke out. The 13.492 km-long track at Circuit de la Sarthe tended to exert murderous stress on engine and drivetrain components, and it also pushed the two French pilots to perform to the best of their abilities. Unfortunately, technical breakdowns did occur, forcing them to retire. With chassis #90117, this car had a historical appearance resulting from extensive modifications and a pickup of racing accessories that is different from the looks of a standard “Teardrop-Coupé“. All the modifications was implemented meticulous into the race version.
