Coachwork: Henri Chapron
Chassis #: 801677
This Delahaye 135M 3-Position Drophead wears coachwork by Henri Chapron. This right-hand drive example is one of an estimated 200 Delahaye Type 135 automobiles produced from 1935 to 1950 before the model was replaced by the Type 235. This example has lower front fender brightwork and recessed headlights. Power is from a 217 cubic-inch overhead-valve six-cylinder engine backed by the optional 4-speed Cotal preselector electrically operated transmission with a column-mounted, gated gear selector and electromagnetic clutches.
