Nice 1 there ! Really would not have guessed it. Obviously 1st thing that comes to mind is Zonda - but that is a more symmetrical, less protruding quadruple exhausts. But this is a nice catch too !  Loved it. Quote:
But what I loved the most - was the teeny weeny briefcase in the trunk ! A nice touch & such a sweet 1 too - to top it all, even the briefcase had the prancing horse on it ! Awesome !

| Bugatti Type 41 - Chassis 41100 & 41111 Just in at Renaux Auto is the 1932 Bugatti Type 41 -Esders Roadster in 1:18 scale by Bauer... This compliment my previous acquisition - the 1930 Bugatti Type 41 Napoleon Coupe de Ville which was also done by Bauer in 1:18... at this rate, I'd expect the remaining 4 models would also be scaled down  |

R.B.Pope had the original car (Chassis 57,591) that later changed numerous hands before it was picked up by RL and repainted, reupholstered & customized. Both versions are pieces of art. | |

| | Re: The Scale Model Thread Is there a difference in the normal Black version with the Disk wheels as compared to the RL version?? I shall do some proper research on this soon! |

1. The Pope version - which basically has the original trimmings, Blue exterior - Brown interior, Wire wheels and a production run of 10-15K pieces. 2. The RL version - the same model, but with Black on Black, spokes were covered with the hub caps (so you still get the wire wheels, as well as the wheel caps) and limited run of 5000 pieces... and of-course this was crowned 'Best of Show' at Pebble Beach | |
