Delahaye 135M Drophead Coupé - 1937 by Perico001 This car was featured in Motor Sport magazine in December 1937. Even today it still has DX 66 as a registration number. The present owner managed to find and speak to relatives of previous owners. DXE 66 was raced at Donington Circuit before the start of the WW2 possibly by the French Count Hayden, a motor sports agent. During 1948/1949 the car was bought by the Barnard brothers for scrap value. Later the car was sold to car dealer/racer George Abecassis and went to Ireland and back to England. During the seventy the car is featured in a book called “The Automobile Treasury of Ireland” by Finnbar Corry. DXE 66 is also featured in “Book on Delahaye” by Jean-Paul Tissot.

Delahaye 135M Cabriolet - 1937 by Perico001 Coachwork by Henri Chapron
At the paris Motor Show 1933, Delahaye broke totally with their traditional productions by presenting two modern chassis with independent front wheels : the four-cylinder Type 134 and the six-cylinder, 3,2-litre Type 138. The latter would lead to the celebrated Type 135, characterized by a lower chassis frame of even more modern design, with side-frames of with tubular struts, the ensemble being electrically welded.
In June 1934 Delahaye obtained approval from the Service des Mines (French vehicle-testing service) for a chassis with a 3,5-litre engine known as the 135M (for modified). The engine entered production in 1935 after being tested in competition.
This 135M with bodywork by Henri Chapron, belonged for many years to the well-known collector Jacques Dumontant, who inherited it from his father and often used it on his travels in search of vintage cars. Although that 135M usually came with openwork sheet-metal wheels, this one has more elegant wire wheels, always available as an option at the time.

Based initially at Tours and from 1906 in Paris, Delahaye built its first automobile in 1894 and soon diversified into commercial vehicle manufacture. Its early products tended to be rather lacklustre, but then in 1935 came the first of a new generation that would change the marque’s image: the T135 Coupe Des Alpes. A fine sporting car, the T135 was powered by a 3.2-litre, six-cylinder, overhead-valve engine producing 110bhp on triple Solex carburettors, while the chassis featured transverse-leaf independent front suspension, four-speed synchromesh or Cotal gearboxes, centre-lock wire wheels and Bendix brakes.
Delahaye improved on the formula the following year with the 3½-litre, 120/130bhp T135MS, and the sports version was soon making a name for itself in competitions, taking 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th places in the run-to-sportscar-regulations 1936 French Grand Prix and winning the Monte Carlo Rally and Le Mans 24-Hour Race outright in 1937 and 1938 respectively. Prince Bira won the 1938 Donington 12-Hour Sports Car Race in Prince Chula’s example and went on to take victory in Brooklands’ ‘fastest road car in England’ race against some formidable opposition. The model reappeared post-WW2 as the 135M with the 3½-litre engine and lasted in production until 1951.
Delahaye had no in-house coachworks, so all its chassis were bodied by inde¬pendents who created some of their most attractive designs on the Type 135. It was a most fortuitous partnership, which resulted in memorable automotive sculpture from the likes of Figoni et Falaschi, Saoutchik, Chapron, Franay, Graber, and Pennock.
Following WW2, the concours-winning firm of Pennock, located in The Hague, Holland acquired several chassis from Delahaye, on one of which they cre¬ated the spectacular three-position drophead coupé offered here. Right-hand drive, like most French cars of quality at that time, this car previously formed part of a prominent private collection, undergoing an extensive and fastidious restoration, since when it has seen little use. It is finished in deep maroon paintwork throughout, while the immaculate 'as new’ interior is trimmed in biscuit hide with contrasting maroon carpets. The hood is of beige mohair.
The vendor is undertaking a full re-commissioning and service, and can attest that the car sounds simply wonderful with the fully rebuilt 3½-litre straight-six engine emitting a strong bark and providing spirited performance. The engine bay is detailed to show standards and electrics have been completely rewired. We are advised that the body was removed during the restoration, and literally everything that could be done to the car was done. Particularly elegant, the coachwork boasts pontoon-style front wings and no running boards, while the versatile hood can be used fully closed, half open in sedanca mode, or fully open giving the car a rakish and streamlined appearance. https://flic.kr/p/23g1ysF
