Joao Gois · « **Reply #28 on:** August 11, 2009, 06:39:55 AM »

Two more nopes!

And I'll give an extra point for who gives me the chassis number!

Joao Gois · « **Reply #30 on:** August 11, 2009, 10:27:18 AM »

Hahah! I see why you said that. But no...

(BTW, this is the chassis #57 200)

Muahahahh, nope!

De Villars?

Joao Gois · « **Reply #34 on:** August 12, 2009, 05:46:51 AM »

Another nope!

João · « **Reply #35 on:** August 12, 2009, 10:55:26 AM »

This car exists today?

Joao Gois · « **Reply #36 on:** August 12, 2009, 12:07:34 PM »

Yes, it does!

João · « **Reply #37 on:** August 12, 2009, 01:48:34 PM »

Labourdette?

Joao Gois · « **Reply #38 on:** August 12, 2009, 05:42:55 PM »

Nope, not this one...

Arunas · « **Reply #39 on:** August 13, 2009, 01:16:53 AM »

L et M?

Joao Gois · « **Reply #40 on:** August 13, 2009, 04:46:23 AM »

No, no, not Letourner & Marchand...

I'm adding a (tiny) clue: it's owned by a quite known actor.

1938 Bugatti T57 Atalante Coupé #57698? Owned by Nick Cage?

Joao Gois · « **Reply #42 on:** August 13, 2009, 11:47:18 AM »

This is a roadster... $:-\$

And that gorgeous coupé is no longer Nicholas Cage ownership. It's the dutch Jaap Braam Ruben property since 2007.

So nope (although I knew someone would bring up N. Cage to the asset)!

A question that hasn't been asked: where was the puzzle picture taken?
I'd say Argentina. What do you say?

Joao Gois · « **Reply #44 on:** August 13, 2009, 01:44:19 PM »

I say I really doubt it. I actually don't know where the photo was taken but considering the car's history, I very much doubt it!

João · « **Reply #45 on:** August 13, 2009, 01:47:46 PM »

Are you sure about the coachbuilder? .....I´m going crazy with this one!

Paul Nee??

Joao Gois · « **Reply #46 on:** August 13, 2009, 01:56:49 PM »

Yes, exactly!!! It is the Bugatti Type 57 Paul Nee Cabriolet! One sweaty point for you, my friend!

My longer-lasting puzzle until now! 5 months!

Any guesses on the chassis number?

For a non-point question, does anyon know who's the (rather unusual...) famous "actor" who currently owns it?

João · « **Reply #47 on:** October 12, 2009, 11:04:07 PM »

Found.....Chassis number #57156

And the owner is Joseph Fine?? (There is a Fiennes..)

Joao Gois · « **Reply #48 on:** October 13, 2009, 08:05:51 AM »

Hahah! Yes, indeed it is the #57 156!! But the current owner isn't Joseph Fine. It's Charles Bronson since 2005!

Damn, 7 months!
