	Bugatti - Wikicars
		Bugatti's disdain for his customers is as legendary as his devotion to his creations; in one apocryphal incident, upon greeting an unhappy customer returning to the factory with "What, you again?", he replied to the subsequent tale of automotive mechanical woe with "Well, see that it does not happen again!" and strode away.
		His son, Jean Bugatti, was killed on August 11, 1939 at the age of 30, while testing a Type 57 tank-bodied race car near the Molsheim factory.
		In 1999 the Bugatti EB 218 concept was introduced at the Geneva Auto Show; later that year the Bugatti 18/3 Chiron was introduced at the IAA in Frankfurt.

	Bugatti Type 57 Book Revised
		It’s remarkable that Ettore Bugatti himself had comparatively little to do with the design and development of the Type 57, because he was so involved at the time with the super-fast Bugatti railcars.
		Of all the body designers who tried their hand at the Type 57, there are absolutely no prizes for guessing that the most way-out styling came from Saoutchik.
		Bugatti 57 is written by Barrie Price, who’s been a member of the Bugatti Owners Club since 1952 and is fortunate enough to number a Type 57SC Atalantic as his own first Bugatti.

	History of the Bugatti Typ 57
		With this new car type the factory wanted to end the variety of types and shorten its range - a decision which was absolutely necessary for surviving the consequences of the economy crisis.
		The time the Type 43 with its single-camshaft-drive has been successful was over and followed by the Type 55 equipped with the succesful two-camshaft motor of the Type 51.
		By this "time machine project" it was possible to reconstruct a very early Bugatti 57 racing-car with a big importance for the development of the type 57 up to the type 57S.

	Bugatti Type 57: the crown on the myth - page 8 of 8
		From 1935 Type 57 cars have been used in competition, first with the Grand Raid chassis and later with the short and supercharged S chassis.
		The last big victory of Bugatti in competition was the 1939 Le Mans 24-hour race with a Type 57 C, a racing car on the long wheelbase chassis with supercharged engine and a Tank-like streamlined body, capable of a 255 kph top speed.
		Though the factory struggled on for a few decades the Type 57 remained the last car Bugatti was remembered by; the crown on the work of Ettore and Jean.

		Bugatti Type 57: the crown on the myth
		In the years before the second World War Bugatti produced several models which were milestones in different areas, like the extremely successful Type 35 racing car or the world's most luxurious and expensive car, the Type 41 or "Royale", to name two extremes.
		The Type 57 appeared in many different shapes, but the range can be divided into 6 main body styles, partly named after famous locations in the Alps.

		Largely influenced by Ettoire's son, Jean Bugatti, the Type 57 would be a high performance chassis built in large quantities that could still capture the exclusive market which was once occupied by the Type 41 Royale and Type 46/50 range.
		As the Type 57 was a larger chassis compared to earlier models of similar engine size, there was allot of flexibility to accommodate custom coachwork.
		Jean Bugatti and his team were largely responsible for creating four distinct bodies which would clothe the majority of the type 57s.

		Bugatti`s Type 57 may be the greatest Bugatti of all.
		The inherent quality and performance of the standard Type 57 was demonstrated by the myriad high performance variants developed from it including the supercharged Type 57C, the sports cars built on the short chassis Type 57S and supercharged Type 57SC and the Type 59 Grand Prix.
		The Bugatti Type 57`s greatest strength, however, was as the quintessential French grand routier, a long-legged, reliable and comfortable automobile capable of relaxed cruising at high speeds on the increasing number of high speed highways being built and improved in the Thirties.

		THE BUGATTI TYPE 57 first appeared at the Salon de Paris in October 1933, next to the Types 46, 50 and 55, which were already in production.
		Jean Bugatti had a considerable influence on this car and refined it to a point that it was vastly superior to many other sophisticated '30s models.
		The Type 57 was at first fitted with "standard" bodies, all four-seaters, and appeared in various guises : the "Galibier" saloon, the "Stelvio" cabriolet or the "Ventoux" coach.

		Although frustrated by his father’s insistence on some traditional Bugatti features, particularly rejecting Jean’s design for independent front suspension, the Type 57 was a major step for Bugatti and the mainstay of its production in the Thirties, with some 685 built during its roughly five years’ production.
		It was without doubt “une voiture de pur-sang.” The adaptability and practicality of the Bugatti Type 57 is demonstrated not only by its many and successful sporting variants but also by the wide variety of coachwork which its owners specified.
		The Type 57 offered here was invoiced on May 27, 1938 in chassis form to Baumberger & Forster of Zurich, Bugatti’s agent there and then sent to Graber for construction of the elegant and practical four-door coachwork which it still bears.

		It was to become the rarest and most exotic of all Type 57 Bugattis.
		The design of the Atlantic, again the work of an inspired Jean Bugatti, showed a resemblance with another contemporary French styling icon: the Talbot-Lago T150 SS "Goutte d'Eau" (teardrop) coupe by Figoni and Falaschi, but was in an unique way ahead of its time.
		There were similarities with aircraft construction, like its most distinctive feature: the ridge running from front to back over the middle of the car which was formed by the flanges with which the 2 halves of the body shell were riveted together.
