1937 Bugatti Type 57S Atalante

A rare 1937 Bugatti Type 57S Atalante was found in England last week, along with a classic Jaguar and Aston Martin, in a garage owned by the late Dr. Harold Carr when his relatives began going through things following his passing.  The car, which hadn’t been driven since the 60’s, is one of 17 made, and is a collectors dream vehicle.

In relatively good shape, though covered in dust from lack of car covers being used, the Bugatti is expected to draw a record price at auction – upwards of $4.3 million.  The Aston Martin has already been sold and the Jaguar scrapped because of its poor condition.
