Renowned as a specialist in the Delage brand, Daniel Cabart has a history of a deep passion for the French marque for over four decades. His enthusiasm has driven him to collect and preserve everything related to one of France's most prestigious automotive marques. Over the decades, he has amassed an extensive archive, sourcing invaluable materials from early historians and pioneers of Delage's legacy, making his collection a crucial reference point even today.

Cabart has authored or co-authored several acclaimed books about Delage. These include Delage, la belle voiture française, Delage: France's Finest Car, Delage Champion du Monde, and Delage, Records et Grand Prix. His works have earned significant recognition, receiving prestigious awards such as the Prix Bellecour (France), the Royal Automobile Club Award (United Kingdom), and the Cugnot Award from the Society of Automotive Historians (USA).

Given Delage's celebrated status as the "World Champion of Constructors" in 1927 and its dedication to showcasing excellence in Concours d'Elegance events, it is fitting that Cabart has played an integral role in chronicling the evolution of these glamorous competitions, which are an enduring part of the automobile's storied past.
