1934 BUGATTI TYPE 55 ROADSTER
Recreation
< back to stock list

Expertly manufactured in 1995, this remarkable creation is clearly something far superior to those conventionally described as recreation.

Both front and rear axle are of genuine Bugatti origin. Many smaller components too are original Bugatti, some of them visible like the radiator while others are internal mechanical parts, such as compressor lobes. Crucially, at the very heart of the car, the engine block is an original Bugatti.

The attention to detail is breathtaking, the hand finishing of such detail as the engine-turned dashboard is to be expected but, in this example, even the carburettor is an exact replica of the original Zenith.

Formerly part of a highly regarded collection of important historic automobiles, in the United States, and recently exhibited at Earls Court, London. This beautiful and enjoyable car will be an appropriate addition to any collection of the finest pre war sports cars.
