Bugatti is right, but it's not a replica...

It's a T50 but by a different coachbuilder.
I'll lock it for you until your next reply however since you've got so far.

I wasn't aware that the Bugatti T50 was mostly sold as a rolling chassis and that several different comanies have build a body for it. But this is an Abbott T50 Tourer from 1938
