The Delahaye rolling chassis, fitted with custom bodies designed by the greatest coachbuilders of the time, won numerous competitions for luxury cars. By the 1930s Delahaye was synonymous with prestige around the world. They supplied their remarkably handsome cars to a slew of kings, show-business celebrities and other wealthy VIPs. For those very much in the public eye, Delahaye was the vehicle to be seen in.


  

This Chapron-bodied car is an attractive example of the 135 model.
