?

The colourful spectrum of classic cars which stretch across many decades include some weird and wonderful creations, but the weirdest of all has to be the 1932 Talbot 14/65 Boat Tail Tourer. With a body made purely of wood, this timeless beauty will be a truly unique buy for the lucky owner who snaps it up at auction next month.

"Brooklands' historians estimate the car is worth a very affordable 20,000 to 30,000", according to traditional boat-builders Henwwod and Dean. The Serious Wheels website has reported that even with no oars, no rudder, no propeller and questionable cruising credentials, this latest consignment to Brooklands auction on December 4th is still sure to float the boat for many classic car enthusiasts.

Starting its life as a simple saloon car, this vintage Talbot was given a new lease of life by a boat builder, who constructed and carefully crafted this Tourer from planks of the finest Honduran mahogany.

Not many classic cars can claim to have a nautical twist, but fortunately for this little trinket its unique selling point makes it stand out from the rest. In keeping with true British sports car tradition, comfort is kept to a bare minimum", according to AutoEvolution.com, with "two small rectangular aero screens, a tonneau cover and a pair of 9 inch diameter headlamps".

As well as the charming outer aesthetics, this classic has a black leather interior with art deco detailing to reflect the era the car was built. With such distinctive intricate detail the 1932 Talbot would make a great contribution to any classic car enthusiast's collection.
