Default Jan 9th : Vintage Cars (Bugatti, Hispano Suiza, Ferrari...)

Yesterday I went to the Schlumpf museum, a well known place for all the bugatti fans; they've got a lot of vintage cars but mostly Bugattis

This time I brought my tripod and my new digicam; unfortunately I only had a small memory card so I could only take about 60 pics

Ferrari



The last one is very special, it's a 375MM rebodied in a 250TDF with a 410SA engine, and they call this a 410AM

Hispano Suiza


Rolls Royce


Bugatti

Royale (quite rare, only 11 were produced, 6 meters long, it's the most expensive car in the world :shock: )



The other bugattis ...







Others

Excellent pics there - the Schlumpf museum is one of the ultimate car musuems in the world ...

You have taken pics of three Royales - blue (Coupe de Napolean) + green tourer + black Limo.

Nice Merc 540K and others.

Indeed, I had some doubts about the black limo but now I can put them with the other royale.
Concerning the green one it's an Esders, it was totally rebuilt in the museum's workshops from original parts

Yes, I've already been there, a great place !
But that was 2 or 3 years ago with an old digicam and the pics aren't that good
I'll probably go there before april, because there's the slr and the enzo (I don't forget the 250GTO, Vector W8, Miura ...)
