The Type 135 was Delahaye's most successful model ever, and the stylish and versatile French car was produced in many forms - as a coupe, a saloon, and a Cabriolet, as on this rare short and low chassis. It is fitted with Delahaye's straight-6-cylinder, 3.6-liter engine with triple Solex carburetors. Built in early 1936 and bodied by Guillore, it was sold to a French deputy in the lower chamber of the French Parliament in 1936. A chemist based in Normandy purchased the car after World War II and later sold it to another collector in 1971, where it remained through 2010 when the current owner purchased it. This Delahaye was mechanically overhauled and repainted approximately 20 years ago and has been used sparingly since then.
