In a reaction on the previous post, wanting to see more hot rods based on european cars, Luciano from brasil sent me these pictures from modelcars he made...Based on stock 1/24 Mercedes 540 K and Cord kits, which he customised as rat rods.

Nice job Luciano!

I would love to see more of this style hotrods based on european cars... I you have seen something, Feel free to post a link / comment!

Bonhams has announced a truely amazing bugatti for its sale at Retromobile, held in Paris 23 January 2010. check this 1925 Bugatti Type 22 Brescia Roadster that has recently surfaced after 70 years in Lake Maggiore.

I guess it will make more than it's €70,000 - 90,000 Estimate... and I really hope the new owner sees it at a sculpture rather than a car, and leaves it in this as found condition, restauring it would be wrong.

update: This sculpture was sold for 230.000 euro to Jaap Braam Ruben, a well know dutch car collector/trader and Bugatti specialist, who previously acquired the malmerspach Collection with Bruno Vendiesse. Rumours go that part of the malmerspach collection and the lago Maggiore Brescia roadster will be shown in the museum Peter Mullin is setting up in Oxnard in California.

I spotted a cool Tempo Matador panelvan in the background of this picture taken from the cooper race transporter at the Avus racetrack in germany.

I found this period picture on a site about racecar transporters www.renntransporter132.de

Some progress I've made on the Bugatti Type 35 chassis... Here's how I made the front axle. and some pics of the actuale state of the build... axles, suspention, front damper, some of the steering, floorplates... No progress on the body... Still Lots of parts to fabrictate! i'll keep you posted. check the modelcars section for previous posts about this project.
