Bugatti T 41 Royale Chassis #41100 in 1:75 scale

[caapa]

Ettore Bugatti want to build a never seen luxury car for kings and monarches of the word. The chassis was mounted with a 14.7 litre engine and with 4 different bodies to show for monarches and the pope in the following years. Bugatti planed to build 25 units but at least there was only 6 chassis built. By the other hand there was all 25 engines produced. The unecessary engines were built in rail-buses of the french railway company.

Inspired by the Napoleon Coupe kit and a nicely detailed fire truck by Marx in 1:87 seen on a toys exhibiton I belived I can build Royale chassis in my scale 1:75.

First I prepared the blueprints and reduced to scale. In the mean time I had in my mind already to build all body variants so I made master pieces for casting the parts with resin. I used a two component epoxy putty for casting. The other parts are made of different wires and thin sheet copper and polistyrene.

Bugatti fans be tuned - I shall post the different models on weekly base.
