While doing research in a local archive for a completely different project, we happened to find several proposals for a Delettrez automobile. The quite large sketches are dated and the translation is "Drawing: Delettrez. Received 27 Feb. 1954. Project number 53144." Here's another sketch, note the different rear window. Now we do know that the French company Delettrez made diesel engines and even some quick ones. But that's about all we know about this company and we have certainly never heard of a Delettrez automobile so we think the proposal was never realized. Yet we are curious to know more about the Delettrez company... did they only make diesels or also other products? Are they still in business? And what happened to the owners Jean and Jacques Delettrez? If you have any information, please tell us.
