According to insights provided by Jean-Paul Tissot, honorary President and historian of the Delahaye Club, this Delahaye 135 M has the distinction of having a bodywork made by the Pennock coachbuilders, based in The Hague in Holland.
Thanks to a specific agreement with the Dutch government and starting from 1946, these workshops received around 100 Delahaye 135 chassis and some 148 L chassis, in order to build their respective bodyworks.
Pennock would then export them, which enabled the Netherlands to replenish its funds with foreign currencies.
Most of these exports were destined for the United States and England where the importer was Alan Selborne.
A few examples also made their way to France between 1947 and 1949, including this car.
During 1948, the grille evolved into the shape of a fencing mask designed by Philippe Charbonne...
