The vehicle is a British-made Talbot, most probably 35hp from about 1908-10. This type of vehicle was the first to traverse Australia from South to North. See following article: [www.4x4australia.com.au/reviews/1602/history-talbot-south...]

Talbot or Clément-Talbot Limited was a British automobile manufacturer founded in 1903. Clément-Talbot’s products were named just Talbot shortly after its introduction, but the business remained Clément-Talbot Limited until 1938 when it was renamed Sunbeam-Talbot Limited. The 1905 Talbot lineup consisted of four twin-cylinder models: 7/8, 8/9, 9/11 and 10/12 and five four-cylinder models, from 12/14 up to a 6.3-litre 35/50. The first all-British Talbots were 1906, 3.8-litre, 20/28hp model, followed by the 2.7-liter,12/16 and bot cddi well in races and speed trails. These cars were designed by C R Garrard, who had worked with Adolphe Clement since 1888. His 1907 design was a dual-ignition, three-liter, 15hp model.

Nestled in the foothills of the Blackall Range, you’ll find a hinterland town with a whole lot of charm. Nambour was once known for its sugar mill, with purpose-built tram tracks transporting the sweet commodity through the town’s centre. Today the historic tracks are being restored to their former glory paying homage to the region’s past, but there’s plenty of other reasons to add Nambour to your Sunshine Coast bucket list. While here make sure to visit the neighbouring town of Woombye, which used to be called Cobb’s Camp due to the fact that it was a staging post for the Cobb & Co coaches in the 1800s. Today, Woombye is known as the home of the Big Pineapple, one of the Sunshine Coast’s most iconic attractions. Source: www.visitsunshinecoast.com/place/nambour
