Arrgh! At first I thought the dead #6 must have a Ferguson transaxle in it but that's not it...its a Talbot Lago .

So, what is it? - both have front disc brakes, both have the number 18 in their parts lists, both drive well in the rain, both are driven by wealthy Englishmen?! ;)

Maybe its too early for me...
