Rare Bugatti Discovered


Publicity-shy American Dr. Harold Car hid a Bugatti Type 57S Atalante in his garage for years. This jewel was built in 1937 and last weekend it found a new owner, when a European bidder secured it at an auction in Paris for 4.4 million USD. If the new owner has the car restored after years of neglect, it is estimated that its value could be doubled. Find lots more barn finds on Classic-Lots
