Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Body color painted wire wheels, dual sidemounts, wood framed rear windshield, wind wings, grey glass sunvisor, opening windshield, side curtains. Quick, thick old repaint, scratched and chipped. Good interior. Instruments and panel not restored, greyhound mascots tail knocked off by hood. Said to run and drive well but indifferently presented in bad colors. A barely OK tour car.

Market commentary

An unusual automobile but disappointingly maintained. The one good thing about this Delage (aside from its rarity) is that it doesnt look to have been badly treated or disassembled by hackers. Tired is a lot better than mistreated and is fixed a lot more reasobly. At this price the buyer can reasobly afford to spend some time and effort upgrading the appearance to match the Delages inherent quality.
