Bugatti Details

The windows wind up and down and the wood trim is waxed walnut.  All mounting screws

are hidden, and the door panels are removable in order to allow access to the door and window

mechanisms.

The firewall is covered with engine-turned aluminum; the brass panel

is the oil tank which is visible from the other side.

The instrument cluster is lighted,

The molded-on running board strips are replaced by two-piece brass strips, one

chrome plated and one painted black to simulate rubber.

The throttle pedal operates the carburator and supercharger linkages.

Like the prototype, the cam boxes, covers, and timing gear housing are scraped

aluminum.  Note the working valves and camshafts that are part of the Pocher kit.

Miniature documents are in a leather portfolio stored in the door pocket on the passenger's door.

If assembled carefully the crankshaft can turn very smoothly

A scratch-built grill guard is a crowning touch
