Delage D8-15, 1934. Betty Spell appeared at a concours in this car with white wheel rims, white wall tires  and a white top.

It is not a D8-15, it is younger than 1934 and Betty Spell wasn't the owner. You have one more attempt.

Too bad, Unlocked.
So far we have Delage, D8-?????, Chapron and 1938.
The exact type designation is still missing for the point and the person who bought the vehicle for the bee.

I have added ‘120’ and that solves the puzzle.
It's a Delage D8-120, by Chapron from 1938 and therefore your next point.
Thanks for the additional photo.

I don't know the owner, but I can add that Chapron called this three-positions-cabriolet "Le Dandy", a name later on given to some Citroen DS coupes by Chapron as well.

Here is its namesake.
