The final Delahaye was the Type 235 launched in 1951. This had a 3,557cc six-cylinder engine delivering 150 bhp at 4,200 RPM. This model came too late, sadly, and was unable to prevent the marque's demise. Very few cars were sold, and the Delahaye Company closed in 1954. The coachbuilder Chapron built most of the bodies on the Type 235 designed by Delahaye's own stylist Phillipe Charbonneaux. This particular car, with its typical period two-tone paintwork, is a fine original late Delahaye Type 235 in unrestored condition. It was previously owned by longtime Pebble Beach Judge and entrant, the late Jacques Harguindeguy.
