This car has been rebodied but can you pinpoint the make, model and the original date of the chassis plus the year it was rebodied?
One point for the full and correct answer.

It's a 1927 Bugatti Type 39A Grand Prix rebuilt to Type 51A. Later rebodied with a sportscar body and engine substituted for T 38A engine.

That's the car!
I don't know when the traditional Bugatti radiator was refitted though...
