Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Chrome wire wheels, driving lights, radio, skirts. An excellent older restoration that has had consistent care and is still in nearly like new condition. Restored under Marcel Pourtouts supervision and comes with his letter authenticating it.

Market commentary

Offered fresh from restoration at Christies Pebble Beach auction in 1991 where it was a no sale at $330,000; then sold by Christies at PB in 2001 for $160,000. If there was money anywhere close to the reported high bid, this delicious Delahaye should have been g o n e.
