1939 Delahaye Cabriolet
This stunning car was designed and built to represent France at the 1939 New York World's Fair.
Instantly popular at exposition, it perfectly fit the promoted slogan, "Dawn of a New Day".
Only 6 of these 12 cylinder beauties were made. This one had been abandoned, and after many years, discovered and restored to it's original splendor.
Since restoration, this car has numerous 1st place and Best of Show placements all over the world.
These images were taken at the Mullen Automotive Museum which is open only one day per month. Thanks to Bob Canepa for a great day trip.
