In 1938 a Delahaye 145 won the Pau & Cork GPs, and the pictured version with mudguards attached finished 1st, 2nd & 4th in the Le Mans 24 hour race.

Delahaye Type 145 #48771 did in fact win the 1938 Pau and Cork grand prix. But NO Type 145 ever won Le Mans. A Delahaye Type 135CS driven by Eugene Chabaud and Jean Tremoulet won in 1938, with another Type 135CD in second, and a third Delahaye Type 135CS finished fourth. Please get it right.
