After the success of the many Interclassics (& Topmobiel) a smilar event was organized in Brussels! And, the first one was with a special Bugatti exhibit!
This time, I could convince my wife Erika to accompany me.
The first Bugatti was already at the entrance to the show! A very original Type 35.
The main exhibit showed an impressive line-up of Bugattis!!
I will show an impression only, and not comment with every Bugatti at the exhibition. The full list of Bugattis can be found at the bottom of this page.
The first car you see: the beautiful Type 101 Antem.
How often can you get this close to an AutoRail engine ?
1929 Bugatti Type 44 Liège - Rome - Liège.
Ettore's private car, a one-off coach.
Not part of the Bugatti exhibition: very nice Bugatti Brescia!
A Bugatti Type 49 roadster being built.
Marreyt Classics was showing a Type 57 project with a lot of work to be done. The Bugatti badge is like one I never saw mounted on a radiator.. Probably mounted later? Who knows!
