“Four Bugatti Atlantics were built, two and a half survive”. Why the half?
Ralph Lauren famously owns one, another lives in a Californian museum. A third hasn’t been seen since being loaded onto a French freight train as the Germany army advanced in 1940. So what happened to the last one?
It survived WW2 (sadly its owners didn’t) and was sold to the owner of a fashion boutique in 1952. In 1955, possibly whilst giving a driving lesson to his mistress, they stalled on a railway crossing as a Renault diesel locomotive passed at high speed. Goodbye all three.
Or was it? The wreck was stored for a decade as investigations dragged on, then sold to a scrap merchant, then cobbled together, then restored, and restored again and again...Who knows if any of the original car survives beyond its spirit, but rather like George Washington’s axe, nobody at yesterday’s Cartier Style & Luxe Concours can have been unmoved, seeing it out, about, gathering rainwater and seemingly ready to drive home...avoiding trains. #bugatti #type57sc #bugattiatlantic #artdeco #1936 #supercars #supercharged #julesverne #icons #frenchstyle
