A very deserving 1937 Delage was named Best In Show at the annual Keeneland Concours d’Elegance on July 20. The Mari Hulman George award for Best of Show went to the 1937 Delage D8 120 SS Aerodynamic Coupe presented by The Patterson Collection of Louisville. The French car also was named top car in its class, Coach-built Classics. The Best of Show Award is presented by the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the Keeneland Concours in honor of Mari Hulman George.
Truly a work of art, the Delage coupe is resplendent in black livery with ostrich-leather upholstery and chrome wire wheels. It is one of the most stylish and elegant pre-war coupes ever built. This exceptional, one-off short-chassis coupe with a body by Letourneur et Marchand was originally ordered for a European prince, and is the only known short-chassis D8 120.
