Made for heir to the Dubonnet apéritif maker, André Dubonnet. He had a Hispano-Suiza H6C made with an ultra lightweight body, he had insisted that the bodywork must weigh no more than 100lb. It was made of “Tulipwood” (actually thin strips of mahogany) held onto an aluminum frame with thousands of tiny rivets.
