Lot no. 15
1946 Delage D6 3L Olympic cabriolet par Dens - No reserve - Alain Ragault, la passion des Facel Carte grise française Châssis n° 880010 Moteur n° 880010 - Châssis Olympic à 3 carburateurs - Superbe dessin, trois exemplaires connus - Moteur d'origine - Sans réserve Homologuée par les Mines le 11 avril 1939, la Delage D6 3L est proposée en deux empattements, 3.15 et 3.30 m, tandis que la version Olympic repose sur le châssis le plus court et dispose d'un moteur plus puissant grâce au montage de 3 carburateurs. La D6 3L est maintenue au catalogue au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, et le modèle proposé est l'un d'eux. Ce châssis Olympic est sorti d'usine fin 1947 pour être confié au carrossier L&A Dens Frères, à Anvers et y recevoir une élégante carrosserie cabriolet 4 places sous capote dont trois exemplaires auraient été réalisés. Preuve que la ligne ponton n'a pas encore convaincu tous les carrossiers à la fin des années 40, c'est la fluidité de sa ligne, notamment pour la partie arrière, qui avait séduit Alain Ragault et l'avait invité à faire une exception à Facel Vega ! La voiture avait bénéficié d'une restauration ancienne lors de son achat en 2006. Une ancienne facture mentionne une réfection de la boîte Cotal en 1985 alors que le beau cabriolet était immatriculé depuis 1982 dans le Val d'Oise. Une importante liste des travaux d'entretien effectués entre 2006 et 2018 figure dans le dossier. Une révision générale de principe sera à effectuer avant de reprendre la route, mais cette Delage au châssis performant et à la carrosserie rare et réussie mérite de rejoindre une belle collection. French title Chassis No. 880010 Engine No. 880010 - Olympic chassis with triple carburetors - Superb design, three known cars - Original engine - No reserve Approved by the French homologation authorities on 11 April 1939, the Delage D6 3L was offered in two wheelbases of 3.15 and 3.30m, while the Olympic version was based on the shorter chassis and had a more powerful engine thanks to triple carburetors. The D6 3L was on offer after the Second World War, and the model on offer is one of them. This Olympic chassis left the factory at the end of 1947 to be coachbuilt by L&A Dens Frères, in Antwerp, and the car received an elegant 4-seater cabriolet body with a hood, three of which would have been made. Proof that the pontoon line had not yet convinced all the coachbuilders by the end of the 1940s, it was the fluidity of its line, especially at the rear, which seduced Alain Ragault and convinced him to make an exception to Facel Vega! The car has had an older restoration when it was purchased in 2006. An old invoice mentions a repair of the Cotal gearbox in 1985 when the beautiful convertible had been registered in the Val d'Oise (since 1982). An extensive list of maintenance work carried out between 2006 and 2018 is on file. A general overhaul will need to be carried out before the car can hit the road again, but this Delage with its high-performance chassis and rare bodywork deserves to join a fine collection.
