This 1936 Delahaye 135 S has coachwork by Deplates/Saoutchik. This beautifully restored and well-maintained racer was brought to the 2006 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance where it was among a few other carefully selected, elegant Delahaye models.
This Delahaye was built for French racing driver Pierre Louis-Dreyfus who competed with it during the 1937 season which included a third-place finish at Le Mans. It was later sold to Ecurie Schell and then to Marcel Contet, who commissioned Desplates to modify the bodywork. Upon completion, Contet raced the car in France in 1939.
