The Delahaye 135 replaced the Type 138 in 1935. The 135 was updated in 1938, now called 135 M (=Modifie).
The top model was the 135 MS ( Modifie Speciale). the 135 M/MS was perhaps the most famous Delahaye ever built.
The car on the pictures was built in 1949.

Pictures taken at the "Technoclassica 2009" in Essen, Germany.
