That looks like a Nardi Vignale concept thing!

Edit... Mr. (Superamerica) James Brown or David Brown.... ?

Calling it a thing would be sacrilege....James.

So it was blue and they built 52 of them, grill is of importance in identification.

Looks rather like a Bugatti to me...

 

[HammerDown]

So yes, the colour is blue, it is a bugatti...........getting there........

 

[Fazda]

It looks like an older version of the 90's Bugatti Chiron Concept car, but I cannot find a picture!!

 

[HammerDown]

38 years older....

 

[Fazda]

AHA! 1952 Bugatti 57! rarer than hens teeth!!

 

[Fazda]

Number next

 

[HammerDown]

LOL yeap...Bugatti T57 known as the James Brown.....tried as I might I could now get any info more than that, not even when I traced the chassis number on the Bugatti register...would be interesting to know the history of one of the ugliest Bugatti

 

[HammerDown]

That badge looks like Delahaye....??

 

[Fazda]

OK....

 

[kilobits]

Grrrr.... you car blokes are just so infuriating! How do you know such things!

Red herrings I thought... and thus chased the completely wrong tree.

I must remember... If at first it looks like a duck... assume it is a duck!



But now... I need to decide... Vodka, Tequila (most evil!) or Southerns! ?? Hmmmm....
