 I'd rather think it's not a T68/J12 (wheelbase too short) but a T70/K6, J12's tiny brother

The J12 was introduced in 1931. Does somebody know the coachbuilder?

 "1936 Hispano-Suiza Type 68 J12 Cabriolet, #14018. Sold at David Gooding’s 2010 Scottsdale Auction for $1,400,000 USD. According to the Hispano-Suiza Society, chassis number 14018 was originally fitted with this wonderful, open body by Saoutchik and was delivered to its first owner on December 30, 1936. Like much of the earliest history of this car, the first owner eludes any firm information, but it is believed that a Czech film star was the original caretaker of this J12. Owned by Michel Seydoux of Sclumberger oil fortune who had Lecoq restore the body and interior. Used in the 1979 James Bond film Moonraker. Displayed at the 1988 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance" - http://www.supercars.net/blog/1934-hispano-suiza-j12/

Robi is the big Bond fan on here, so I think he might appreciate this "six degrees of separation" that I discovered when I was reading about Schlumberer. Marcel Schlumberger (a co-founder of the company with his brother) is the great-great-granddaughter actress Léa Seydoux ("No Time to Die")....the aforementioned owner of this Hispano-Suiza, Michel Seydoux, is Ms. Seydoux's Grand Uncle. Today's bit of extremely useless information......
