Would this be a post-war Delahaye 135?

It is. Now, for the point, who built this sharp-looking example?

You have a 24-hour exclusive.

Fortunately, there aren't too many to choose from.  I will say Letourneur & Marchand.

Are you sure that it is a 135MS and not a 235?  I got the point but I am curious.

I took the picture from a seller's listing. I'm assuming he knew what it is.

I'll PM you the link.

It resembles a 235, because it was the prototype for the 235.  Unfortunately, it seems to have been repainted in white.
