David Baude has done a wonderful jog on this Solido Bugatti also. The lighting looks interesting. I can't find anything like it in my Bugatti books. Thank you for retrieving this one from your accumulation Robert. I have not seen David's work previously.

Would look nice next to this one from the Minichamps Mullin Collection. I have not seen an Atalante drop-top before. Note the different headlamp position.
