Condition
5
The car was restored in the late 1980s and has been stored since 2020, indicating it will require a thorough overhaul to return to safe driving condition. There is no mention of the mechanical or cosmetic condition since restoration, so I assume it is between above average and good condition.

Description
1938 Delage D6/70 3.0 Olympique Cabriolet by Coachcraft
No reserve
Chassis no.
51381 Same owner since 1985 Restored by Lecoq in 1985
Delivered new in Great Britain Collector's registration
In 1938, the Delage factory exported chassis #51381, a D6 70, to the UK.
Few cars were exported to Great Britain, a country where national preference played an important role.
Delivered to the Coach Craft workshops in London, it was bodied as a two-door, five-seat cabriolet, based on a Henri Chapron design. The current owner acquired the car from a London dealer in 1985, but it was found to be in poor condition.
It was decided to send it directly to André Lecoq.
The mechanics were sent to Meca Précis.
During the restoration, the car was reconfigured as a 3.0 Olympic.
The engine was re-bored to three liters, fitted with three Solex 40 carburetors, and the axle ratio was lengthened. For the bodywork, a striking green hue is chosen.
Matching upholstery and soft top complete the package.
