Other Vintage spotted in Beverly Hills, California

Details on This Other Vintage:

  • Location
    Beverly Hills, California
  • Description
    This spot truly blew my mind: It's an extremely rare early 1950s Delahaye 135M Cabriolet with Henri Chapron coachwork. Delahaye was a French car maker that produced elegant luxury cars like this one. I spotted it driving around long after the Rodeo Drive Concours D'elegance ended and was the best shot I could get. The traffic was a horrific nightmare since multiple streets were closed and there were too many pedestrians crossing this one street preventing me from getting better photos.

Not sure. I read somewhere that a total of 2,000 Delahayes were produced which means that only a couple dozen to hundreds of 135Ms still exist.

In the back of the photo, there is a very interesting 1912 Ford Model T which is still running like new today.
