Delahaye 135M Antem Convertible 1949 by Matrix
Antem was responsible for a number of body designs on Delahaye chassis and this very elegant open four-seater is one of the most attractive. Surprisingly only three examples were built and the model is based on one of the cars as it survives today, having been restored thirty or so years ago. The paintwork is a very deep blue which appears black in most lights and shows off the sweeping wing lines beautifully. The tan interior has a slightly weathered look, with the hood bag being particularly realistic. The wood-grain decal on the dash is slightly less successful, but this is a small piece and overall it’s an attractive model.

About Matrix
From the original creators of the Neo range, this resincast series offers a wide range of mostly road car subjects. Some are very familiar classics but we also see plenty of very rare and usual machines ranging from Maharajah's Rolls Royces to Citroen and Volvo limousines! Overall casting quality is excellent, paint finishes usually to a very high standard and plenty of fine etch used for small trim. Wire wheels on some subjects can be a little unconvincing but otherwise very consistent. Made in China.
