As the Peugeot, the Renaults, the Hotchkiss and the Delages are all accounted for, and either have more sloping fronts, or are four door saloons, this should be earlier than the 1934 Renault shown on the Paris Salon 1934. Before the Renault mentioned only a Citroën C6 Rosalie and and Alfa Romeo 6C1500 (perhaps 1750 GTC (high chassis) are unaccounted for, picture wise. Only the Alfa had wingnuts with ears on, so is this the Alfa Romeo, or am I barking up the wrong tree? I published this picture elsewhere without the chassis being identified, so I am interested to hear what it is..

(Nice to see more images of the Gaston Grummer Aeroprofiles.  I believe that scale models are available for 4 of the 10 built)

I think it's a Delage Aeroprofiles by Gaston Grummer !
1point for bentleybob !

[woodinsight]

Although I'm still trying to find photographic evidence, I think this car is the Alfa Romeo 6C 1500 Aéroprofil bodied by Gaston Grummer c.1933 as Bentleybob suggested.
If I find a photo/image I'll post it here......

[bentleybob]

That would be great!

[SACO]

Yes ,this car looks like an Alfa Romeo 1933 !
But Delage is written on the other side of the photo ( ebay )

[bentleybob]

Unfortunately this source has nice material, but its information has often proven unreliable. And the Delages by Grummer as an Aeroprofil I have seen don't match with thei pic. My best guess would be the Alfa...

[RayTheRat]

I'm not an expert on this, but my research seemed to lead me in the same direction, that is, that the car isn't a Delage.

(still on the salt...several FIA and one FIM record fell today.)

I suppose it's the same car.

According to "Gaston Grümmer - The Art of Carrosserie" book, this is indeed a 1933 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750.
