This one-off Hispano-Suiza was
commissioned by Andre Dubonnet in 1937 to showcase his company's latest
suspension development. Andre Dubonnet was an accomplished aviator and
racing driver. The Dubonnet family had amassed a fortune from the
aperitifs and cognacs that continue to bear the family name. The
streamlined, aircraft inspired styling was done by aerodynamics expert Jean Andreau and French coachbuilder Saoutchik crafted the body on a modified Hispano-Suiza
H6B chassis. The car is equipped with unusual parallel-opening doors. (coachbuild.com)
