Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1928 Hispano-Suiza H6C Transformable Torpedo by Hibbard & Darrin, originally delivered to the U.S., features updated coachwork from later in its life, including pontoon fenders and a built-in trunk. While recently serviced and presenting well with good brightwork and a refreshed interior, the modifications impact its originality. Previously owned by notable collectors, it represents a blend of Swiss engineering, French design, and American ingenuity.

While the car presents well with good brightwork, an excellent convertible top, and a nicely accented interior, the description notes that the body was updated, including the addition of pontoon fenders and a trunk, to bring it in line with the streamlined look of the late 1930s. This deviates from the original 1928 design and affects its originality, which is a key factor in classic car valuation. Therefore, despite the recent service and overall good condition, the modifications prevent it from achieving a higher rating.
