Description
Description Older restoration; top quality French car for recommissioning after a few years off the road; on offer from a deceased estate The Delage DI is widely regarded as one of the finest touring cars of its era, offering refined and reliable motoring.
They were sold as rolling chassis and generally sent to the best coachbuilders for bodywork.
Imported into the UK from France 45 years ago, it was at that time described as a pick-up.
The windscreen would suggest Drouet et Gaucher coachwork, a company based in the Courbevoie area of Paris.
It retains what looks like a folding section at the rear which we have been unable to open, which may be where the reference to pick-up has come from - a lot of French cars of the period having this feature turning them from a four-seater tourer into a practical load carrier.
It was imported by well-known motor-coper Tony Mitchell and sold to Fred Woolley in January 1980, from whose estate it is offered today.
