Gentlemen,
I'm not often blown away by very old, crank start, vintage cars but at last Saturday's C&C in Scottsdale there were two Bugatti's sitting across the aisle from my GT and 100 years separated them. A 2013 Veyron and a 1913 Type 13 which was the first production Bugatti. The owner drove it to that event at 75mph and said it will do nearly 100 flat out. All original and pristine I was slack jawed looking at it. Overhead cam and 4 valve heads in 1913!! No radiator fan so the little race car needs to get moving soon after starting it. The owner has 13 vintage race cars and this Bug is the 2nd NEWEST car in his stable. At a future event in AZ he would like to host the GT Forum at his garage for a tour. Cheers.
