Very few Voisins were coached by Figoni because Gabriel Voisin believed he could create superior coachwork in-house. This Voisin is an exception. For this Voisin, Figoni created a unique one-off design with a lithe, sporting profile, unlike the quintessential Voisin styling. The car was showcased at the Madrid Auto Salon in December 1934 and purchased by the Shah of Persia. It passed through various ownerships, and was discovered in the 1970s in a barn in France. Jacques Buson purchased the dilapidated Voisin and, with the help of Claude Figoni, Joseph's son, and Henry Bernard, son of Voisin's chief designer, the car was restored. In 1991 the Voisin was acquired by Peter Mullin and restored to its original spectactular specification.
One of only two built, the well-balanced Figoni & Falaschi body on this Voisin was one of the first to be influenced by modern aerodynamic principles.
