89AKurt Posted August 13, 2019 Posted August 13, 2019 1934 Bugatti Aérolithe - Jay Leno’s Garage Only because it's the same color as my Porndy. Seriously, magnesium body, 4'x8' sheet about $3,000.
stitchdup Posted August 13, 2019 Posted August 13, 2019 Is that the one that was built on fantomworks?
iamsuperdan Posted August 13, 2019 Posted August 13, 2019 It was The Guild that built this car. The owner guy with the crazy shirts is in the vid.

You are correct Dan. it was built in Bradford Ontario, about 30miles north of Toronto. It was documented on the reality TV show. IIRC, once done it was taken to Saudi Arabi where it was unveiled.

If I lived closer to them, pretty sure I would have spent my career working there.

Any idea where the car and the guy who commissioned 'The Car' build ended up? That was one crazy over budget build that went no where.

I follow the Guild on facebook and once in a while watch them on youtube but I've never seen that car mentioned...
ChrisBcritter Posted August 15, 2019 Posted August 15, 2019 Pretty little thing. Would make a neat VW kit car!
misterNNL Posted August 18, 2019 Posted August 18, 2019 I watched the Leno' s garage video with great interest. My jaw literally dropped when they related that the car was dropped from a height of seven feet when being unloaded with some idiot driving a lift truck!
