1938 Peugeot 402 Darlmat

The Darl’mat was the brainchild of Emile Darl’mat and a Peugeot dealer in France. It was intended to boost Peugeot’s image by offering a lightweight body, unique aerodynamic styling and a sporting engine.

At the time, the Darl’mat roadster was unlike anything else on the road and was occasionally raced in period. The coachwork was designed by Georges Paulin and fabricated by Marcel Pourout.

After being restored in 2004 this car won its class at Pebble Beach.

Taken at the Hilton Head Island Concours d'Elegance & Motoring Festival.
