As beautiful as they come

The French cars of the '30s are generally considered to be some of the most stunningly beautiful cars ever produced. This 1937 Delage D8 120 is certainly outstanding in that whole bunch. This car was built for a European prince and is the only short-chassis 8 120 known to exist.

I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Lovely automobile, but the grill looks like a flat surface.
    Trick of the light or what, Tom?

    You've a keen eye, Tony. The angle of view and the light do come into play. The grill is actually a very fine mesh.

    Take care,

    I'm happy to share 'em, Taz. I'm dead lucky to get to see the fabulous machines that I do. Messing around this kind of stuff is a passion that won't turn me loose.

    Stay safe,

    Hey, buddy. I can understand the craving, as I share the lust, but I shudder when thinking about how much money this thing is worth....certainly something in excess of a million bucks, quite possibly a whole lot more.

    See you,

    Tom
