Equipment
RHD. Single Solex carb, Cotal pre-selector, body color wheels with hub caps, Lester wide whitewalls, driving lights, rear-mounted spare wheel with cover, pop-out windshield, wood dash and door trim, banjo steering wheel, Marchal headlights and fog lights,
Condition
Some scuffs on the whitewalls. Light scratches on the nose. Long, deep scratch on the right front fender. Paint blister there as well. Orange peel at the bottom of the passenger's side door. Pitted, lightly scratched window trim. Paint flaking off gear selector. Good wood and upholstery. Holding up well and looking pretty, but its best days are clearly behind it. Older body-off restoration, done in 1993. Subdued, even conservative styling for a Delahaye as well, but still undeniably elegant.
Market commentary
Offered at Bonhams Amelia Island auction in March where it was reported bid to $125,000. It landed here in Hershey with a reserve and adjusted estimate range and went away at a very reasonable price, particularly with the potential for much better performance (or a prettier underhood presentation) with the triple carb intake installed.
