The rolling chassis of an older Phantom I was shipped to Belgium to the shop of Henri Jonckheere and his son Joseph Jonckheere. They were well known throughout Europe for making bodies on both cars and busses. The latter of which is still in production today as VDL Jonckheere.
The commissioning owner of the car is uncertain due to war damage at the factory, but the design is not. The Jonckheeres created an extravagant body which has just as much impact 75 years after its construction as it did in 1935.
The car was finished in time for the Concours on the French Riviera where it won the ‘Prix de Cannes’ award.
