This shockingly modern stunner is a 1937 Dubonnet Hispano-Suiza H-6C "Xenia". It was built for Andre Dubonnet, the vastly wealthy apertif brewer who was heavily involved in car racing. Prior to seeing this car the only Hispano-Suizas I had been aware of were huge chauffeur driven affairs that appealed to people for whom a Rolls simply wasn't good enough. This is an excellent example of the customized look coach builders of the era created for their clients on a chassis that might be used by another client who wanted a completely different look.
