The Type RA was produced by Renault from late 1926 through 1928, when it was replaced by the much-more modern Vivastella. Just 344 15 CV Type RA chassis were built during that time, so it was rare then, much less now.

This car sports one-off coachwork by Million-Guiet and has seating for five: two front seats, a sideways-facing rear seat, and a two-person rumble seat. Power is from a 3.2-liter inline-six.

Displayed at the 1926 Paris and New York auto shows, this car was purchased new by a family in New York, where it remained for 60 years. The next owner restored it and then parked it away. It wasn’t until 2017 when it reemerged. You should check out more on this one here.
