FM's 1936 Bugatti Type57 Sport Coupe was old tech but, beyond the 2-D dash, nicely done. This black/yellow model was an LE re-issue from the original black/red. I was impressed at the time how the yellow really pops without having the paint applied too thick (you modelers will get it).

Excellent photos Rich. I was never really interested in this one, I have the red/black version and thought that was enough. The yellow does look more interesting.

Rich, I echo John - Excellent Photos!!

 

I have both the red version and the yellow, so-called, 'Pebble Beach' and find it super interesting how the versions differ in contrasting paint-scheme designs.

A little out of my purview, but great photos of a beautiful model.

This is a very pleasing model. The yellow with the black really makes it stand out.

I have the red/black version. I really like the yellow/black much better but not enough to have both.
