1942 Alfa Romeo 6C2500 Super Sport Pinin Farina Cabriolet
Alfa Romeo made 28 cars during WWII. Six of them were made for high officers of the German Army. This car, with a custom body by Pinin Farina, was made for Wolfram Von Richthofen, a Field Marshal of the Luftwaffe, and is the only known survivor of those six. After the war, the car competed in the 1948 Mille Miglia, finishing 3rd in class. Cooper Technica is currently restoring this car. 1942 Alfa Romeo 6C2500 Super Sport Pinin Farina Cabriolet MORE DETAILS and PHOTOS
1948 Delahaye 135M Saoutchik Cabriolet
This Delahaye 135M, a touring Cabriolet, was built by one of the great coachbuilders, Jacques Saoutchik, in May 1948. The Delahaye features an unusual three-position Landau folding top, allowing a middle position (only the rear seats covered), and rear-hinged 'suicide' doors that incorporate the sweeping fender line. Cooper Technica is just beginning a ground-up restoration of this fine automobile. 1948 Delahaye 135M Saoutchik Cabriolet MORE DETAILS and PHOTOS
1937 Delage D8-120 Aérosport Coupe
One of the finest coach-built streamlined automobiles ever designed, the Delage D8-120 Aérosport Coupe was introduced at the Paris Salon in 1936. Only twelve of these cars were made before production was halted by the war in 1939. This car, in a photograph taken at the 1937 Paris Salon, may have been owned by Standard Oil Heiress Millicent Rogers. Cooper Technica is in the process of completely restoring this car, and fully researching its provenance. 1937 Delage D8-120 Aérosport Coupe MORE DETAILS and PHOTOS

1942 Alfa Romeo 6C2500 Super Sport with its original Cabriolet Coachwork by Pinin Farina, 1947
