I think it's the EHP which has been for sale recently.

I think you've got the right car, but I need the type designation for the point.

I do not want to seem to be trying to steal something from others here, but I have been following this one a while.

According to the data plate on the car FrontMan mentioned, this should be an EHP LeMans Buggati from 1925, type DS.

Is that what you are looking for?

Let's put it this way: the car is an EHP Type DS from 1925. That earns you the point.
It has a CIME engine and it is supposed to have been a Le Mans participant which would make it a rebodied car as the Le Mans cars were open-bodied (see below). I have my doubts about that. The Bugatti part is pure rubbish.

Well, Gerd, I did not mean to upset you :-* :-*

Perhaps you should take away the point because I failed to spell Bugatti correctly. :bag:

Hello chaps,

....just woke up again.

Does anyone know anything about Henri Precloux ( the "H.P." of EHP)?
