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 in 1997/2009 in the "Cité de l’Automobile – Musée National – Collection Schlumpf" in Mulhouse, France.
