1994 “Special' Type 55 Bugatti Hand built recreation of the 1935 Type 55 Bugatti For over 60 years I have been selling both new and Pre-owned Rolls Royces, Bentleys and other legendary motorcars from this same location. I have the honor of offering this one of a kind motorcar. This hand crafted masterpiece started out as a 1/16th scale model but ended up a 1/1 scale moving work of art. The builder was a Bugatti enthusiast/historian and he took extensive measurements and pictures of two original Bugatti numbers 55215 and 55211. It took close to 10 years to build as a majority of it was built by hand including the steel chassis, wood bulkhead, side panels, braces and body panels. Molds were made for the bi directional fiberglass fenders which were in keeping of the sweeping contour flow of the Bugatti fender design. Other types of fiberglass were used on other body panels depending on the strength need. All of the woodwork was hand made and he cut down the tree that made the steering wheel. The engine is a Ford 4 cylinder, 2000c.c. with automatic transmission. There are certain features that had to be added to make it street legal like seat belts, front & rear directional signals and license plate mounts. For his own pleasure he mounted an AM/FM radio under the driver"s seat for his long road trips. There are many photographs of the construction process that are included along with service manuals. Adhering to the strict regulations and requirements of the State of Illinois this motorcar was given a new VIN by the Secretary of State of Illinois, SOS 301 977 ILL. In my 60 years in the motoring business I have bought and sold many rare motorcars and this particular one I rate as one of the most stimulating. Just imagine while driving around in this moving work of art, the dedication of 10 years to fulfill a dream. Price: $24,900 negotiable
