1938 Graham 97 by Saoutchik — The Stunning Art Deco Cabriolet War Couldn’t Stop
"1938 Graham 97 by Saoutchik — The Stunning Art Deco Cabriolet War Couldn’t Stop—it’s a story of speed, style, and survival. Built on a supercharged straight-six chassis, this French-bodied American masterpiece dazzled the 1938 Paris Motor Salon with cantilever doors, folding windshields, and a sleek Sharknose design. From presidential parades to wartime service in North Africa, it defied convention and bullets alike. Later restored to concours perfection, it wowed enthusiasts at Pebble Beach and Cobble Beach. Only two examples exist today, making it a rare blend of mechanical ingenuity and coachbuilding artistry." from the video introduction
