Compléments d'infos du Bugatti Register :

 

Engine n°: 345

Year: 1930

Licence plate: TF 87 (GB), 701 XUL (GB)

Owner: Nick Whitaker (UK)

Former owners: Richard Baudens (F) 1950, Michael Glass (UK), Charles A. R. Howard (UK) 1987, Abba Kogan (UK)

Type 46 Coach 'surprofilé' started by Barrie Price and finished by Keith Bowley (Ashton Keynes Vintage Restorations)

#46491.

The rolling chassis had been ordered in September 1930 by Vanvooren in a batch of 14 cars but the order was canceled as a result of the depression. Most cars were sold in the thirties but this one stayed at the factory unbodied with 4 other cars until 1950 when it was sold by Roland Bugatti to Richard Baudens, who also bought 46482 and a separate surprofilee body. At first in the nineties a semi-profile body, made by Barrie Price, was installed but later it was replaced by the surprofilee body. The first body was placed on 46136.

Et, tant qu'on y est, la petite histoire de la T-51 #51133, carrossée par Dubos.

 

Engine n°: 6

Year: 1931

Licence plate: 4800-NV1 (F) in 1931, 863-RK4 (F) in 1936, 29-RL (F) in 1937, 864 V 64 (F) in 1993, SK-58-43 (NL), 44PH-44 (USA), again 29-RL (F)

Type 51 Grand Prix (ex Type 35 C 4962) > Coupé Alantic by Louis Dubos Paris, France (1937) > again Grand Prix, now Atlantic Dubos Coupé

 

This car was built on an older chassis ex 4962 which was made in March 1930. Later it was renumbered to 51133 with double overhead camshaft engine # 6 in June 1931

This chassis number was registered first by the works at prefecture du Bas-Rhin on July 7th 1931 as 4800-NV1. A second type 51 was also registered by Automobiles Ettore Bugatti that day, it was 51132 with number 4799-NV1.

This Bugatti Coupé originally started life as a Bugatti factory team Type 51 Grand Prix racer that was driven to great success by legendary French racing drivers Louis Chiron in 1931, and by Rene Dreyfus in 1931 and 1932. The car was reportedly given to Chiron by Ettore Bugatti after the 1931 race season and was used by him for sometime thereafter. After Chiron sold the car, it was eventually acquired by Parisian playboy Andre Bith, heir to a pharmaceutical fortune.

Andre Bith initially modified the Grand Prix Type 51 by adding headlamps, cycle style fenders, moving the spare wheel to the rear and painting the car black. In this configuration, Bith drove the Bugatti in rallies and sporting events after the modification.

Being friends with Jean Bugatti, the talented designer and son of Ettore Bugatti, they often lunched together. When Jean Bugatti drove his revolutionary Atlantic coupe to one of their meetings, Bith was so impressed he immediately started plans to produce a stylish rendition of his own on his Type 51. Bugatti factory driver Andre Roland reportedly assisted Bith in the design and helped him obtain a competent coachbuilder.

Renowned Carrosserie Louis Dubos from Paris was selected and started the new coachwork on the Bugatti on April 2, 1937 and delivered it to Bith on July 20 1937. The finished car was truly spectacular, the swoopy aerodynamic and finned exterior was resplendent in dark lavender blue with tan pigskin grained leather interior and was complete with a beautifully polished Sycamore wood trimming. Bith was delighted with the results and he proudly entered the car in the 1938 Bagatelle Concours d'Elegance where Mme. Jacqueline Ganet, the reigning Miss France, showed it. The car was well received and scored a win. The trophy was accepted by Mme. Ganet who wore a dress to compliment the beautiful Bugatti paint scheme.

Bith sold the car a few years later and lost track of it during WW II. The car survived the war and in the early 1950's was sold to American collector Gene Cesari. Mr. Cesari removed the body and exchanged it with American collector Eri Richardson who mated the coupé body with a made-up Type 51 Bugatti chassis. In this configuration and in the great enthusiast Bob Sutherland's hands, it was vintage raced at the Monterey Historics and was a regular on the Colorado Grand events for years. Meanwhile, California car collector J.B. Nethercutt had purchased the Type 51 original chassis #51133 from Gene Cesari and restored it as a Grand Prix with a replica body by renowned Bugatti authority O.A. Phillips.

The Bugatti was a popular feature of the Nethercutt Collection for many years and then in August 2000 the Nethercutt Collection learned that the original Dubos coupé-bodied car would be available at auction due to Sutherland's death. The Nethercutt Collection was able to purchase the coupé with the intent to reunite it with its original chassis with the help of Andre Bith, now over 90 years old. Mr. Bith fondly remembered the car and supplied the Collection with original build documents, photos, receipts and many other remembrances of his years with the car.

After nearly 50 years the 1931 Bugatti Dubos Coupé is now reunited with it's original chassis #51133 by the craftsmen in the Nethercutt Collection's renowned restoration shops. A total authentic restoration of both the chassis and body with painstaking attention to authenticity was debuted at the 2003 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
