We are delighted to offer a rare opportunity to acquire this wonderful Bugatti Type 13‘Brescia’. Finished in dark burgundy with black upholstery, it features many original components. Chassis number BC67 was originally a long-chassis Type 23, but was shortened some years ago to Type 13 specification, and the body is in the ‘dog cart’ style.
The engine is a 16-valve ‘four’, retaining its original numbered crankcase and cambox, and it has been rebuilt over the past few years. It features a pair of SU bronze-body period carburettors, so it has wonderful performance that is truly amazing for a ‘light car’. It also has a heavy-style front axle with front-wheel brakes to handle modern motoring.
The car has a current UK V5C registration document and a VSCC buff form, making it ideal for competition use such as driving tests and trials, plus tours and more.
These wonderful early Bugattis remain a highly collectable component of the marque’s history. Please call for further details and to discuss this fabulous little Brescia, which is available now for immediate inspection and purchase.
